This is 3 blocks from Bloor, 1/2 a block from Yonge. It look very suburban and under-scaled to me.


Staff don't seem to share your opinion:

"The current building as proposed has an overall height of 25.5 metres and contains a mezzanine level, which technically classifies this building as a mid-rise building at 5- storeys. As a result, the applicable guidelines would be the Avenue and Mid-Rise Buildings Study, rather than the Townhouse & Low-Rise Apartment Guidelines. Staff have requested that the building be reduced in height and the mezzanine be eliminated in order to classify this building as a low-rise building."

Site Plan application:

 
Approval Recommended in a report to the next TEYCC on July 16th.


Editorial Note: It's an important part of such reports to secure with some specificity, everything from section 37 items to parkland improvements to tenant amenities.............but once in a while........that level of specificty almost makes me spit my coffee laughing.

From the report:

"New Indoor amenity space of 373 square metres which shall include, but is not limited to: theatre/media room; gymnasium which shall include, nine cardiovascular and six weight machines, and space for stretching exercises; communal/multi-purpose space which shall include, lockers, seating and tables; party room which shall include, a kitchen, tables and chairs, and a direct connection to the adjacent outdoor amenity area; and a games room which shall include, a kitchen, table, seating and pool table"
