The Neighbourhoods of the Beach (42 Edgewood Ave, Urbancorp, 3s townhomes)

Noticed this when I was in the area the other day (no pictures, alas):

The site as it appears on Google Streetview.

From the 2012 report:

This application proposes the development of a 32 unit low rise development at 42 Edgewood Avenue
which includes the construction of a new public road. The property was formerly a Catholic elementary
school.

The proposed development on a public road is in keeping with similar developments built nearby in the
1980's and 90's. It is an appropriate use for a large vacant site in the middle of a neighbourhood.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law.

As of a couple days ago, it appears just about all of the homes are up, though not clad or anything yet.

This is one of three similar clusters being built in east end. So far it looks like not much thought was put into stitching this one neatly into the neighbourhood and they crammed in as much as they could get away with.
