That is great. That KFC had a lot of land and the parking lot was never full. There will be no love lost with the disappearance of the KFC from my old neighborhood.

Preliminary report
http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2015/te/bgrd/backgroundfile-79282.pdf

Owner is Scott's Trustee Corp.. which I believe if you go up a couple of levels is owned by Plazacorp

But in the lobbyist registry Lanterra is the client.

Lanterra may have talked to someone at City Hall about the site, but as the Mondelez story taught us, the entry in the registry does not mean that they necessarily bought the site, only that at least they were investigating it. We should not take the lobbyist registry entries as proof of purchase.

I took at look through the application materials and found the application form... the owner is Zev Mendelbaum (1630 Queen Developments Limited) 2811 Dufferin Street ... so it looks like this is a Lanterra project or at least some associated family company. Not sure why the owner listed in the City report is different than the application form ... maybe it was left over from a previous city report template and they forgot to remove it

Appear to have the corner site now too.

Appear to have the corner site now too.

corner? Hmm, I assume you mean up to the streetcar loop at for Queen/Coxwell?

That would explain the blank facade at street level, if that's the case.

 

[ChesterCopperpot]

Not sure about all the way to the corner. The Emerald Bar and Grill bar is now part of the project though.
