Toronto Regent Park: Phases 4 and 5 | 134.1m | 39s | Tridel | Karakusevic Carson Architects

Looking at the Ground Floor Plan in the front page story, we're getting 7(!) narrow-but-deep retail units along Gerrard which is amazing. I think earlier plans had something like 4 shallow-but-wide units, so this is a huge improvement in terms of making Gerrard feel like a local main street.

So looking at this compared to the site plan, I think they might kinda gotten the render backwards. Assuming this is the view along Gerrard, the tall part should be on the left when looking south...

I can’t decide whether the tower on the right is grey or a very subtle green?!

...the two (2) big green pipes above ground on Gerrard are City Water sewer infrastructure above something called a "Vortex Chamber" - the OPA and Masterplan need to be altered to provide more clearance around those corners. This is accomplished by shifting some of the massing / density south from Gerrard and adding it to the Oak Street side of the development.

Noting that EVERY tower now has a floorplate greater than 750 m2, new range between 800 m2 - 900 m2....

The RED highlights are added to the original City & TCHC slides -- as they are a great example of HOW these "mixed-income" deals have to work in order to replace the RGI in Fall 2024.

Oh it's gh3...that firm's works gives off a lot Scandinavian vibes. As it does here, IMO.

it's odd, because the proposal for 4B+4C by GH3 looks A LOT like Cobe Architects' recent work, down to the filleted precast panels, broken down massing, and colour tones...
and isnt Cobe signed on for the neighboring 4A site? or did GH3 take over the 4B+4C site from Cobe, in which case its looking like they just absorbed Cobe's intital work.

if im getting my wires crossed, someone correct me
