Toronto The Notable | 171.6m | 50s | Graywood | Turner Fleischer

[Northern Light]

Update:

Soooo, the Minor Variance request did not advance through the system as the applicant might have hoped:

This has resulted in a resubmission...........when denied 35s via SPA, appeal to the OLT, when denied 40s, via Minor Variance, while the SPA is under appeal, resubmit for 50s!



Chutzphah has rarely been better defined.

As long as we're going to reopen the can of worms...............lets nix that fake park that's less than 5M wide (or 1/3 less wide than my apartment) LOL. Come on now, if everything's back on the table, I want an offsite acquisition, at a more than 40% height increase from the original proposal, I also want parkland worth 40% more, plus inflation adjustment. Just saying....

Ahead of the renders, @Paclo is flagged.

Also PE will be happy to know:

3 cabs for 330 units. Pretty good. It's an abnormally small plate so I doubt an extra shaft would even be possible. Even better that they're taking 25 spaces out here, it's literally 50m from St. Clair station.

There are now 4 cabs in the plan.

Wow. 4 cabs for 409 units, even on a very tight 614sm plate. Good to see some folks taking this seriously!

The database has been updated to reflect the new OZ submission. Linked below is the case page for the Minor Variance / SPA under appeal, still in the CMC phase:

Thanks @Northern Light for the update. Will 50s make it the tallest at Yonge and St. Clair?

There are 2 other 50s projects in the pipeline here, the one at 1365 Yonge is 2ft taller.

"Notable" only for its banality.

I wouldn't take a note on this even if it was begging me to.

Is the strategy here to ask for 50 and accept being bumped down to 40, like they already wanted?

Seems way too small a site to support such a large building, in footprint, space for residents, and respect for neighbourhood.

Has there ever been a similar site go from 7 stories to 50 stories? With all of the flipping, maybe only a 50-story tall tower will be profitable?

Is that little strip of grass supposed to be green space?. Might be big enough for a dog washroom...

Traffic counts at Yonge & St. Clair since 1984

Matt Elliott writes a newsletter called the City Hall Watcher. And one of his features is something called Intersection Inspection. It is where he does a deep dive into traffic counts and modal spl…

Well this data serves a great narrative why density at Yonge & St. Clair is appropriate...

Definitely gives off "Ctrl + C" vibes.

A City Park.

LOL

You're not wrong.

1365 Yonge was 3 to 50 in a similar period of time.

Would love to see the park named "Notable Park"

Would love to see the park named "Notable Park"

A not even 15ft wide 'park' in the shadow of a giant tower that has zero program amenities......is more aptly named Ignoble Park.

No-table Park

Hmm only 15' wide... maybe this?
