Big week for Republic: 3 major Toronto projects earn approvals

The week of Feb. 5 was a momentous one for Republic Developments as it received a council-endorsed settlement for a major development and full zoning approval for two smaller projects from the City of Toronto.

Republic also received full zoning approval for 3 Swift, a 598,430-square-foot high-rise on Eglinton Avenue East. The Arcadis IBI Group-designed project will have 857 units in two towers and a podium, as well as providing parkland.

Sixty-one of the units will be affordable rental replacements. It hasn’t yet been decided if the rest will be market-priced rental apartments or condos.

The project is a partnership between Republic and landowner Silver Hotel Group. The privately owned hotel investment, development and management company, based in Mississauga, has a portfolio of 22 hotels in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec.

“We were retained to manage a development program on a number of parcels that they own,” Young explained.

Site-plan approvals are still needed for both Bellwoods House and 3 Swift.
