This will go on the 'vacant' land; which is tied to the existing TCHC complex on the right hand side of the shot.
 
New Modular-Housing site announced in Scarborough at 7 Glamorgan Avenue (Glamorgan & Dundalk).

Different built-form than the other Modular-Housing proposals. Smaller footprint and a 6-Storey massing. This is a design that can be reproduced on many more sites around Toronto (eg. smaller Green-P parking-lots) than the larger footprint needed at MACEY, HARRISON, etc.

@HousingNowTO Is there an opportunity to get more units here? Looks like it could have easily been 10-12 floors in light of the building beside it.

Also, is your team pushing for affordable/supportive housing to be built on any other of our many tower in the park sites?

6-storeys is (apparently) as tall as you can go with Wood-Frame Modular in Ontario. Above that height you need to go to steel-frame.

The new site in Etobicoke North that is also a TCHC "Tower in a Park" site. However, our volunteers would push for more of these 6-storey / 57-unit sites be created closer to high-order transit on small Green-P Parking Lots along the Subway and LRT lines.
 
There are over 1,000 tower in the park sites in the city, I believe. If half were to host a 50-60 unit supportive housing development, that could make for 25-30,000 units; more than enough to house every homeless person across the entire city. We should get moving on this.
 
The City of Toronto broke ground on new 57 unit project on 7 Glamorgan Avenue once complete woman, Indigenous, and people with disabilities will move in.

I don't think they can say exactly which groups it will serve until an actual operator of the site is contracted... they aspire to housing some of those groups...

For a moment I thought that this was a development in Dundalk, Ontario, which much like Toronto is experiencing a development boom.
