Maybe not that soon.....
Construction should start early in the new year.

Ok, this is different...........
Council Approved the ZBA here last year.............but the proponent appealed the approval, on the basis of drafting deficiencies in the by-law as passed.
There is now a settlement offer headed to next week's Council meeting seeking to 'remediate' said deficiencies.

Application Details
www.toronto.ca
A new OPA/ZBA for LSQ with some revisions to Blocks 2 & 3.
Block Plan below for reference (note that Block 1 is unchanged with Tower A and Tower B -- also known as LSQ1 & LSQ2 -- at 43 & 30 storeys):
Block 2 has been revised to 43, 42, 27 & 27 storeys, with Tower C containing market-rate & affordable rental units and the rest contemplated as condominium tenure.
Block 3 contains the existing and retained 8-storey office building and a proposed 10-storey residential building (Building G).
Block 4 has also been revised via Minor Variance from the previously OLT-approved 11-storey office/self storage + 7-storey parking garage to a 6-storey office, retail & self-storage building and an adjoining 4-storey parking garage.
Updated visuals for Block 4:
Updated renderings for Blocks 2 & 3:

Hmmm,
It's not excavation for the building just yet.............it's for soil remediation:
They need to pay their bill before they get much further:
No valid shoring permit yet. (for construction)

Again, "for purposes of remediation" is a workaround to start shoring work before your full permit is in hand.

I've seen a few of these PE, that resulted in full backfilling after the initial work.
I think I've only seen one that went right through.
I assume you've seen more.
You may know in this case which way that will go. I'm just leaving it open, since I don't know.
