Look, I have a solution to speed this up.

I love walking on the Beltline Trail and over the years I've watched as large numbers of the stately old homes have been replaced by mega-mansions. I checked and the footprints of these new buildings matches the Harvey's! So to speed this up, all they need to do is use the same processes and approvals needed to build a mega-mansion.

This is just a visual reference. The total amount of reconstruction on Forest Hill Road likely matches or exceeds the total amount proposed for this site across a far greater footprint.
 
With Q2 drawing to a close will CreateTO miss another one of their own deadlines? (rezoning resubmission)...... I think I know where @jmi22 's money is on this......and I wouldn't bet against him.

5 years 1 month since this was announced, 4 years plus since ZBA submitted. Best possible time to deliver now.... (my take, 2028 Q4). Minimum time elapsed 7.5 years from ZBA.

Realistically, they still don't have this right............they'll be another rezoning submission before we're done............and 2033 if we're lucky.
 
I'm in discussion with BetMGM for a way to bet against CreateTO timelines... I expect be yachting in the Adriatic this time next year.

On a serious note, does anybody have context for how a half dozen hydro poles got built into the road across the street from here?

Click to expand...

Not in the middle of the street anymore:

WestBeach Condominiums | 24.38m | 6s | Marlin Spring | Graziani + Corazza

Is that the work that's happening now? They've been digging for a couple of weeks.

The work was done early (new poles) in anticipation of a sidewalk widening that they didn't get around to for years......
