While I certainly agree that T&S (or Waste of T&S) is a total shit-show, I am not sure one can blame City Planning. First, they do not have any way to insist on 'quality' and the, more importantly, site had pre-existing conditions due to an Ontario Municipal Board decision from over 20 years earlier that allowed them to bring the building right up to the property line on all sides. As noted here by others, if the OMB or now the OLT gives a site extra permissions, these really should be time limited. Use it or loose it!its really one of the worst projects of the cycle. especially sad considering its in one of the best neighborhoods. huge failure for city planning
