42 stories is an insane upscale of this site.

I don’t see how this could possibly happen.

To orient everybody, this is mid-block on the north side of Adelaide between Church and Jarvis, across from St. James Park.

The closest tall building is Spire.

I believe this site is very limited by the St James Cathedral view corridor too. There isn’t a lot of precedents for breaking view corridors in the city.. interesting to see what happens here.

I cant see what the issue would be. The Saint is going up a block north of the cathedral and it is at least as tall. Without seeing a study, I think the only place you would be able to see this and the cathedral at the same time would be if you were standing right at the corner of King and Church.

Which IIRC is one of the protected view corridors.

Gee, protected view corridors, shadowing, etc..
...meanwhile this will be build a block or two south of a new Ontario Line subway station .

Best not check out the land uses next to the stations on the Danforth!

Might be wrong but I have heard in the past that the partners own the building. I wonder if they are directly involved in the development proposal.

Agree, but changes are about to happen

Residents would be blocked from challenging developments within 500 metres of transit stations under sweeping reforms to the Ontario Municipal Board to be unveiled .

See p31 and p33. This is totally in the clear in terms of view corridors.

I would not count those chickens until they are fully hatched and out of the incubator.
