It's not that big a deal to the public realm if they are positioned off QQ, to be hidden by a future phase.

Guys, those can't be covered (per Enbridge's requirements). They are natural gas regulators and they need to be in the open air in the event of pressure buildup - they are ALL over the city, and visible 99% of the time. They're one of those things that are "hiding in plain sight". Like others have said - if they're directly to the north of the first phase then they're going to be blocked by the next phase. Nothing to get up-in-arms about.

any word for when Cityzen is going to launch the next phase of this? it has a horrible street presence right now and really needs the next phase to make it seems somewhat human.

It doesn't help that there's a giant fence blocking off the development from the street. I guess any resident who doesn't exclusively drive in/out has to walk along the edge of the driveway.

It might be awhile..we purchased a condo in phase 1 almost 7 years ago and we just starting to have talks about finishes! which by the way are very generic!

More green glass by the lake, that's exactly what our skyline needs!

There should be a great public space and promenade at the foot of Yonge. Otherwise, the substantial stretch of waterfront between Yonge and Jarvis will be a deadzone similar to Harbour Square--in this case with a mix of a sprawling condo and a factory.

Uhh, Captain John's is still there

WT have plans for a park immediately east of Captain John's (or rather where Captain John's was - once it moves!). The plans for the Gouvernment site on north side of QQ also have plans for parkland.

I agree with Junctionist. The lack of a grand public space at the foot of Yonge feels like an oversight, and all the more so given all the development going to happen in the immediate area.
