Ugh. I’m so tired of this building. Be done with it already.
Also, I think it’s twee that they bothered to tell us they’re closing the only sidewalk bordering the building now. I don’t recall the pronouncement when they took up Front & Trinity for the 67 years it’s taken to get this far.
Also, with Shoppers slated to go into Reikai centre (by 2093 -when funding is secure- I heard) retail tenants are anyone’s guess now.

I would not be surprised if a Shopper's or Rexall goes in when the Long Term Care home starts construction right beside this building. They really need to get that car dealership out of there as well. That's a lot of space that could be used for affordable housing.
I also originally read that they planned to have some affordable units in this building but have not seen or heard anything since it was originally mentioned before construction began.

One thing I did notice today is dirt clings to this building very easily. I wonder if they will give it a good power wash once all the construction is done...

This is supposed to be market rate AND affordable rental from the get go. Unsure if that’s changed

I suspect that smaller building at 90 Mill Street could be affordable housing but I'm not sure if that's correct.
On Toronto's official website, their Site Plan Control PDF states:
"A total of 257 (30%) of the rental dwelling units in the overall development will be affordable rental dwelling units. The affordable rental units will be constructed generally in accordance with the dwelling unit plans accepted by City staff and secured as a condition of Site Plan approval."
I'm sure that smaller square building at 90 Mill Street is big enough for 257 units. That pdf is also from 2021 and things often change as construction carries on through years.

I think similar to Maple House, the affordable units are mixed in with the market units.

Btw the boutique condo building at 90 Mill is now South Cherry House and looking ready for move-in/pdis.

They opened a path along the 90 Mill Street building. So, I shoved my phone up against the window and took a pic...

Great! That’s how it’s done! And a few of the rapidly evolving streetscape! Taken 30 May.

Night access
Also, this isn’t Cherry House, but it was the first time I could stand here and take in Birch House from the new street in the project. Sooo, call it a view.
