Love it. I suppose the question is, what is preventing or disincentivizing us to build in this manner? Policy? Zoning? Political will? It seems straightforward. With Scarborough GO's masterplan just two stops west, these TOC buildouts seems to be the 'hill-to-die-on' to demonstrate what Japan...

I think my example might have overly likened it to a mall. I imagine the tower bases would have space for retail not of the big box store type, but commercial spaces for small businesses (e.g., dental, vision, cafe, restaurant, boutique goods and perhaps a grocery anchor). Thinking would be it...

Wanted to echo the sentiment re: 1 Bed units. Given the glut of these types of units, is there a better policy/incentive to build more family-oriented units? TOC's to me should serve as neighbourhood nodes where there is an increase of attraction for activity (i.e., groceries, retail, services)...

Mail listed subject area in a 'Kennedy Crossing Regeneration Area Study' -- https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/planning-development/planning-studies-initiatives/kennedy-crossing-regeneration-area-study/ I'm a little too Green to provide greater insights, but based on project plans, it...

Respectfully, I hold the opinion that these areas will be animated by the increase in density. Attracting business, art and culture and animating the neighborhoods. Intermingled with all the transit (e.g., GO RER via lakeshore, Line 5 and closely linked Line 2) -- it all stands to add a new node...

Seems city council believes charges have been applied properly. https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2024.EX11.3 Complaint has been dismissed and authorized city staff to defend any appeals to the city or OLT.

Thanks Northern Light! So there is a sticking point that the city and the proponent are unable to settle. This development seems to be a positive development plan (to a novice such as myself) so I am curious to see what the dispute is. Cheers.

What are the implications of this heading to the Ontario Land Tribunal? (I'm a novice so would love to know)

These shots are going to serve as great records for the future as the development on this strip come online. Thanks for sharing!

Was driving by the other day and it's starting to give some height/depth to this stretch of Kingston Road. Exciting.

Maybe I’m seeing things. I saw two signs, one in front of the beer store lot and one on the adjacent strip on the Birchmount and st Claire corner. I presume a sign perhaps got knocked due to damage?

Had driven by this weekend - the signage still seems to be up. Have no heard any changes otherwise. Cheers!

Thanks @Midrise and @Northern Light for the insights. The Cliffside guidelines is really useful, didn't know it existed. Look forward to the Kingston Road renders. Cheers!

Unsure if this is the correct thread to comment, but with the block context plan and seemingly increasing density in the stretch between danforth/midland on Kingston. Do folks have an example of what that type of front looks like where 3 lanes exist on both sides of the median? The density is...
