Toronto 5207 Dundas West | 98.5m | 30s | Tricon | Henriquez Partners

These look like new HD quality renderings; sharing. From the Henriquez Partners Architects website, explaining the design: "This transit-oriented community builds density where existing infrastructure can support significant growth, and improves an underutilized urban site. Two towers emerge from a mid-rise podium, marking the key corners of the site. A tranquil courtyard is framed by the mid-rise podium and creates a quiet refuge from the busy city and adjacent railway. Indigenous Elders call this place Adobigok – [where the alders grow]. Alder trees are species that improve soil as they grow. Likewise, this project will also improve this neighbourhood in transition. An Indigenous-led consultation process, with Smoke Architecture, reinforced the façade expression and the public realm design. The façade is inspired by fall colours and the geometry of a honeycomb. Custom precast panels evoke the structure of a hive. Colour graduates from earth tones at grade to light tones at the sky."

Let's just hope this doesn't turn all grey just like what happened over in the West Don Lands....

With Tricon at the helm here, I actually think it's more likely here to see that happen but we'll see what happens.
 
Did anyone find when this project is expected to complete? I see some people mentioning 2026, 2028 but I can't find any published material with a completion date. I live around here and I see the cranes are up and construction seems to be progressing quickly. With politicians pushing for affordable housing numbers, any chance this gets completed much quicker than other projects? I wish I can move out of this neighborhood before this building is complete
