It should be noted that the approved rezoning is a bit different from the November application.

The approved rezoning is for 2 fewer storeys (11 vs 13) and 20 fewer units (140 vs 160). Brings it down to 34m as opposed to 40m as was applied for in fall 2020.

Huh? The initial project was approved and quite wonderful, even with significant opposition.

It failed due to a developer issue, not a community one.

I believe he meant the original design that had the cascading levels.

It could be argued that if they were able to proceed with that instead of spending additional months re-designing and going back to consultation/council for approval, the developer may have caught a window in the market where they executed the project. But, it could have just as easily led to the same "new" design at the current timelines. Who knows.
 
Sorry if this was already discussed earlier in the thread, but did Pagnotta end up buying the entire project to protect themselves from being able to recoup what they were owed from the original developer?

Crane is up at Windsor Terrace as of this morning. Picture taken from my living room :)
 
Finally! This is a project that makes total sense. It will be a great place for more people working at the University to live nearby, not everyone can have a house in Windsor Park.

It gives the area more density, in addition to the nearby student housing and the building next to it.
