Updated project description:
Proposed mixed use development that would include one north residential building (stepping up to 16-storeys (47.2 m)) and one south residential building (stepping up to 18-storeys (53.1 m)) connected by a podium (4 to 5-storeys) as well as one office building (9-storeys (32.1 m)). The proposal would include a total gross floor area of 52,980 square metres, of which 43,644 square metres would be for residential space, 7,730 square metres for office space, 1,131 square metres for retail use, 381 square metres for community agency space and 94 square metres for a restaurant. This site would contain a total of 535 new residential units, of which 525 would be condominium units and 10 would be Affordable Ownership Housing Units (Toronto Artscape Inc.). A total of 358 vehicular parking spaces are proposed within a 4-level above grade parking garage that would be located along the rail corridor. In addition, a new public park is proposed to have a total area of approximately 868 square metres.

New Park at 6 Lloyd Avenue​


A new park is coming to 6 Lloyd Ave. The City will be engaging the community to help determine the park design.

Project Timeline​

  • July 2021: Hire a design team
  • November-December 2021: Community engagement
  • Winter 2022-Spring 2022: Design development
  • Early Summer 2022: Contract award
  • Spring 2024: Park Completion
The timeline is subject to change.

As part of a new mixed-use development at 6 Lloyd Ave., there will be a new 868m2 municipal park. The park will be located at the northeast corner of Mulock Avenue and Lloyd Avenue, directly across from Keele-Mulock Parkette. The property developer will be leading the construction of the new park and will be preparing two concept design options for community feedback. The new park may include:

  • A plaza space with seating and shade
  • An outdoor fitness area with ping pong and games tables
  • New plantings
The City will be leading the community engagement for this project. The park concept is being developed in consultation with the community.
 
Not a whole lot going on here lately, but here's a couple data points pertaining to this project (and the associated proposed public park) for 2023:

Settlement Offer:


We missed some different incarnations along the way here.

Peak height was at 44s but the offer haircuts it to 35s.

@Paclo will be charged with sorting out what we missed here!

No new renders included.
 
Hmm. I actually quite like this project - subject to an elevator count. 1,000 units, office, daycare, decent sized public park, retail along St. Clair animating the underpass (and decent sized retail too!), low amounts of parking.. pretty solid overall.

Hold on; you were doing ok until the bolded bit.

Decent size? 0.2 acres?

It's entirely non-functional and tiny. Not worth doing at all, much better off with an off-site acquisition to enlarge an existing nearby park, say, I dunno, maybe right across the street?

Then, if one was smart about it, the northern fringe of acquisition becomes a new exit for the laneway.

This allows he lanyway through the middle of the two existing park parcels to be removed.

Voila:

Something much closer to usable. Still only 3/4 of an acre, but at least suitable for a proper sized playground and the existing court feature.

For the record, minimum acceptable parks sizes start from 1 acre. Decent size starts from 3 acres. High Quality Park starts at 5 acres.
 
If the proponent here is still Carlyle then they'll probably look to sell this site eventually to another developer who can get this built at some point.
