Toronto Junction Point | 27.6m | 8s | Gairloch | a—A

Looks like the former Coffee Time across the street is being converted into the sales centre for this project.

This hopefully means that Gairloch also owns the Coffee Time site and will eventually redevelop it. Flatiron??

It's not so clear right now with the small rendering, but the bronze material on the cladding provides an additional dimension of interest and could look quite good.
 
That's gorgeous. Hope Gairloch also own the property where their sales centre is going to be at, I'd love to see what they can do with that site. All we need next is for someone to rack up that opposite corner lot with the Cash Money.
 
Commute designs first condo project in the Junction

By Samantha Edwards
May 16, 2020

Junction-based interdisciplinary studio Commute is best known for designing sculptural lighting, custom furniture and the interiors of trendy Toronto restaurants like Alo, Aloette and Oretta. The company’s latest interiors project is also its biggest yet: Junction Point, an eight-storey, 111-unit condo at Dundas and Dupont by Gairloch Developments. The chiseled three-sided building, designed by Architects Alliance, is expected to be completed by 2022 and units will go on sale this summer.

 
Just got an email about registration opening for this building.

Dundas from Bloor to the Junction is marked in the Bike Plan as getting a bike lane. Adding a bidirectional bike lane on the west side of Dundas would calm the traffic on that stretch, bring back some pedestrians, and support some small local retail. The buildings along that stretch all look like they used to support retail. With all the development going in over the next few years, the local population will jump and should be able to support more businesses.

Does anyone know what guidelines/rules they'll have to comply with regarding street-level retail?

Looking at the zoning map it's zoned as Commercial Residential north of Glenlake, so we could definitely see an extension of the commercial strip down from the Junction proper further south.
