On Dufferin just north of Wallace and on Hallam just east of Dufferin. I like this area as there seems to be a concentration of multiplexes that is making an impact. Now if we could just get a few street trees! 
Taken 16 September.

Yep, what they're planning here is such garbage, frontier town level, slap it together architecture.

Semi-detached 4 plexes. 8 units. Usually I’m joking when I say that ‘X Street is the new Ossington’ but Oakland might fit the bill!

I assume this went to the CoA because it's technically combining two lots into one, and thus, is not 'as-of-right' approved?
Even still, if this is approved quickly, it could set a great precedent. Developers could buy two connected semis and turn them into an 8-plex with minimal fuss
