According to an office worker in the building this evening (663 King West has both residential and office accommodation, as well as the Banknote bar), occupants of the building - both residential and office, have been given until the end of July to move out. Banknote, being ground floor might have a bit longer. But it is happening...
Love child Social house is on the ground floor too, any word on that?

Asked the Ontario line community team for more info, preparatory work is due to begin at this site in the fall, excavation in summer 2023.
However, they are aiming to take possession of all properties before the fall of THIS year and are still in active negotiations with the owners.

Expect all these bars (Banknote, Regulars, EFS and Love Child) to announce their closures/relocation in the next couple of months folks.

What a waste of density. To expropriate those buildings then not build above them as a part of the development? Pathetic. Muhhhh we need more affordable housing. Absolutely f'n ridiculous.

I mean, sure, if you ignore the fact that metrolinx is very much planning to build above them..

Anyone know the reluctance of architects to incorporate brick into their designs to make it look like an actual cohesive building?
