I wonder who appealed? They seemed to have sorted everything out with the School.

Any word on the start of this build?

No. As mentioned on the previous page, on the approvals side this building has been appealed to the LPAT, while on the marketing side there's been nothing of that yet, so not anytime soon it would seem

The LPAT appeal was submitted, presumably on behalf of the Board of 560 King Street West (Fashion House Condominium), identifying TSCC 2376 as a party to be included in the distribution of all documents being submitted to LPAT for this appeal.

Allied just bought Jacobs so we can expect that this will be further delayed while they incorporate that into the plans.

Amazing what a years worth of forced closure does to a restaurant's tune of being bought out

Good news though, it'll make this site a lot less awkward.

Hmmm.

The AIC shows 9 Morrison, on the north side of the lane as being in the application.

That's confusing!

Finally some progress....

This one is approved at OLT

https://www.omb.gov.on.ca/e-decisions/pl200311-Dec-10-2021.pdf

There were some tweaks made to appease the TDSB, but the new plans don't appear to be on the City's site just yet; and the reports above, as yet, remain confidential.

But the OLT decision is not.

Here we find:

Edit to add for emphasis, the height cited above is 12s while the thread title currently references 15s.

This appears to be part of the settlement to me:

So frustrating that this had to go to the OLT to be approved.

 

[DavidCapizzano]

I think the office portion is 12 stories and the residential portion is 15.

Note that the City did approve this; it was Toronto Lands Co. that appealed the City's approval (TDSB real estate arm).
