Toronto 335 Yonge | 55.2m | 16s | Lalani | Zeidler

[ProjectEnd]

i find it hard to believe they will build a 1-2 storey retail structure to house a Jollibee's when just a couple years ago the owners of this land wanted to build this https://thetorontoblog.com/2012/12/...e-works-for-se-corner-of-yonge-gould-streets/

i'm thinking there is a mistake in the address and they're moving into a vacant retail space somewhere in the strip

That's from a CBRE flyer. It's not what anyone 'thought' they were going to build. It was a highest-and-best-use, idealized massing for the purposes of selling the land.

Besides, at least two other massings from other architectural firms - also for the purposes of vending the land - have been created since that one. Still, through all of the various 'proposals', the land has yet to trade.

The Jollibee is set for a different location. It's not the site of the Empress. It's within a building that already exists.

You could - you'd just need to get Site plan approval, which would take at least 9 months. Then you'd have to actually build the place.. which leaves me wondering why you'd be hiring a restaurant manager when it's at least 2 years out.

Sorry, I mean as a high-rise.

The Jollibee is clearly possible, but I just have doubts that they'd be able to stick a high-rise onto the site, which I think is one of the reasons why the site has been empty since the fire.

Jollibee revised the address of their future downtown location in the job posting. It's supposed to be 334 Yonge St, instead of 335. Which is across the street on the west side of Yonge, where Ardene used to be.

I wonder if this straddles' 333 Yonge, or if that is included w/this block.

Really the whole block inclusive of 10 Dundas East should be considered together, ideally.

Still, interested to see what the latest proposal looks like; and whether it will include the second exit to Dundas Stn.

Fully agree that the whole block should be consider, as I have call for the whole block be torn down . You can have at least 2 tall towers with a tunnel to Ryerson that would be a second exit , as well allowing TTC to widen part of the exist platform. The building could be set back to allow more sidewalk space. The podium could be 6-12s

You could put parking underground that would allow more room for Ryerson to use.

You could put most existing places back in this new block, since some most likely will relocated elsewhere.

Fairly garbage-y. If the renderings show it as a mullion-mess, you bet it will be even worse as built.

Generic uninspiring trash.

 

[AlbertC]

Lalani Group & Zeidler. Pretty much looks like the base of that placeholder image which first emerged around 7-8 years ago, with the most generic tower possible plopped on top.

So will this be an airbnb hotel or a de facto Ryerson residence?

There are to be no more airbnb hotels, the new rules approved by the LPAT this week should see to that. They are likely aiming to build a de facto Ryerson residence here though, and why wouldn't they?
