I like it, carries the motif from Ryerson across the street.

Is there some urban design guideline I don't know about that requires all new buildings near Dundas/Jarvis to have a grid pattern?

I disagree, Grid Condos is ugly. Disheveled.

Looks pretty good from this angle, and it will be compelling to have more buildings fill in the vista around Yonge–Dundas Square.

It's tall! But it would make more of a visual impact if it was 10 to 15 storeys higher! Viewing it from Dundas Square as seen in the the photo up above.

I agree, I think Yonge and Dundas Square need some nice tall buildings to give it more impact in terms of being cool city centre.

I don't argue for more height often but agree with the some of the sentiments here. Despite the much discussed design failures of Dundas Square it's undeniably one of the most photographed places in the country. It continues to evolve/improve and has arguably become the psychological heart of the city.
The eastern edge of Dundas Square needs 1-2 statement buildings. If not here, then when the Bond Hotel gets re-developed.

Amazing how much better the corner building looks when it's not been Pizza Pizza-ified

Good luck with that. The City's in the process of trying to buy the Bond Place Hotel to turn it into a permanent homeless shelter. (The City rented the hotel during the pandemic for use as a homeless shelter and would like to make that permanent.)

Does anyone reckon that the house originally at 250 Church Street should also be preserved? It looks like it could potentially have heritage status as well, looking like a townhome from around 1900 (plus/minus 20 years).
