Toronto U of T: Schwartz Reisman Innovation Centre (Phase 1) | 64.8m | 13s | U of T | Weiss/Manfredi

So it'll just be an empty lot for likely years ? Or a parking lot ?

Such a shame we’re gonna lose the neighbouring building! Really wish we could do something to get it designated and at least have the facade cleaned up and incorporated into the second phase

I disagree. I think the initial phase looks fantastic, and if you forced them to retain the facade it would take away from this architecture in the future phase. I don't think the existing building adds to the area, so understand why its not designated.

I'm not sure what any interim use plan may look like here........

I think the University is very pleased with how phase 1 went and has filled thus far........

Once financing costs have moderated, and phase 1 is closer to full, I would expect to see phase 2 go forward.

Impossible to give a hard timeline at this juncture, but I could see it moving ahead in the next 18-24 months, just not yet.

Not usually that long.........I mean they haven't yet hit the 200 year mark as an institution. LOL

I'll see if I can't finagle some up to date timelines on various projects.

Saw this in person today and it doesn’t look like a Toronto building. It looks…Californian?

No building permits applied for at all.

any idea if Phase 2 has been canned or if it just delayed?

Not canned.

It will move forward.
