Well, the warehouses were certainly great cheap space for artists and bands, that's for sure. Those days are long gone now. I don't miss the parking lots but I do miss the sketchier corners of Toronto from two or more decades ago, like Mill Street in the east end or the entirety of what's now called Liberty Village in the west end. And all of the speakeasy joints that used to dot the downtown... ahh, memories.

Are the plans in this node executable if they actually get through zoning/SPA? Does adequate servicing exist without major upgrades? Are they still in a floodplain with the Don River work recently completed? What about conflict with the nearby waste station and employment uses? I live near here and thought there were still major constraints to realization but this seems to be the new hot spot for rezoning and flips.

The waste station is to be closed in the next 2-3 years. And NL would know better but I believe that utility upgrading has occurred with the rebuilding of Lakeshore East as well as Commissioners/Cherry.

Not sure, have to look into that.
I don't believe the Don Roadway berm is finished yet. When it is, I believe they will be outside the floodplain, as of today, they remain within the regulated area.
The City is prepared to take these areas mixed use.
The Energy Centre may or may not be more of an issue, for other sites, the pollution from the stacks is an issue at ~35s up. This may, or may not be far enough away, not sure.

Saw this while looking for info on zoning changes.
