Toronto M2M Condos | 129.9m | 40s | Aoyuan | Wallman Architects

Bit of news here; the supermarket has been leased.

It will be a novel version of an established grocer. But not one of the conventional majors.

I can't reveal the name yet, but it should be public next week.
 
T&T could use a store in the area.
T&T along with original FoodBasics were original suiters,... FoodBasics bailed for parent company Metro's empty space at Emerald Park south of Sheppard,... and T&T bailed for FairviewMall
 
Changing the topic,.... in May 2021 I posted:

-----------------------------------
Here at Aoyuan M2M construction is being done in 3 phases with Community Space going into Phase 2:
- For Phase 1 to get their Building Permit, Aoyuan would include cashier cheque worth the value of Phase 1's Section 37 Community Benefit contribution towards the final Community Space
- For Phase 2 to get their Building Permit,... City would insist Aoyuan include cashier cheque worth the value of Phase 2's Section 37 Community Benefit contribution towards the final Community Space and/or tie it to occupancy permit of phase 2
- Phase 3 haven't started yet? Phase 3 is still just a rendering of low/mid-rise,... no official redevelopment application and no Building Permit to grant,... thus City can't collect the Section 37 Community Benefit contribution from Phase 3 yet. This is mainly why the Section 37 Community Benefit community space generated from just Phase 1 and Phase 2 is deemed too small,....

When Phase 3 gets to Building Permit stage - the Section 37 Community Benefit could just be cash,.... which would more or less cover the $3.9million City is now paying for the additional 1,960m2 (21,097sqft) space for Community Centre. Again, Phase 3 is a wild card,.... Phase 3 likely won't be the low/mid-rise as rendered,.... it's more likely to be tallest and highest density of M2M 5 towers,... especially if Cummer Station is built and North York Centre Secondary Plan continue to fails to hold density restriction. Anyways,... maybe get Public Library as part of Section 37 Community Benefit in M2M Phase 3

I assume they will close their store just south of Finch?
They also have one down at Church Av. and the M2M (store) next to Sheppard Centre.
This may take away some of Galleria's traffic, although Galleria does open 24hrs.
 
I assume they will close their store just south of Finch?

I'll assume H-mart will keep their Yonge & Olive H-mart (just south of Finch) which will likely be the only grocery store at Yonge & Finch area once Shoppers Drug Mart at 5576 Yonge closes for redevelopment,...
- Yonge & Olive H-mart is 560m from their Yonge & Church H-mart,... showing H-mart is willing to saturate an area
- Yonge & Olive H-mart is a further 720m to this new much larger Aoyuan M2M H-mart
- most of the area's population density is in the condos, south of Finch and area Subway users will be walking by the Yonge & Olive H-mart often - so convenient to pick up something on the way home,... but for these folks the Aoyuan M2M H-mart is a long walk/detour out of the way
