I thought the OMB is still set to render its decision with respect to the City's motion?
Can they begin with such works without that decision? http://www.omb.gov.on.ca/ecs/CaseDetail.aspx?n=PL120119

As per the letter received from Menkes, they have received final approval and will begin work very soon.
It has also been confirmed that demolition and site preparations are anticipated to begin in January 2014 and construction will start in the first quarter of 2014.

Interesting decision on the City's motion to rehear the case because they thought the OMB member was biased....http://www.omb.gov.on.ca/e-decisions/pl120119-Sep-12-2013.pdf
The Board member reduced the City's proposed Section 37 benefits from $1.23 million to $0, but the review found that was within his discretion.
Here is the original decision. http://www.omb.gov.on.ca/e-decisions/pl120119-Oct-12-2012.pdf

Great news to have more large-scale rental developments rather than just buildings sold to individual condo investors who rent out their condo units. If I was renting again, I'd prefer to live in a well-managed, purpose-built rental building than rent a condo unit.
p.s. For all the criticism that Tridel gets on UT for bland architecture (which I think that they are rectifying recently), they actually do produce a well-constructed product having their own construction firm and all. A PDI with Tridel is a pleasure and they fix things asap vs. other developers who use other construction firms and have a complete breakdown in organizing anything...with no one hired as quality controllers...resulting in disastrous PDI's. Not naming names here in this respect, just sayin' Tridel wouldn't allow half the things that are acceptable with other developers.

I thought this was 365 Church too
Rental makes sense here, especially since it's close to Ryerson campus.
Really liking this development along Church, it's so barren right now with the old Barn building, terrible murals, and parking lots.

- Where it's urban. And dense.
Yeah, that stretch of Church isn't a particularly happy one.
