In other news, the old Vito's on Rothesay Avenue is being demolished, according to several videos and pictures I saw on Facebook today. From memory, it has been vacant since COVID.

The North End plan concepts for Lansdowne were for six storeys, with the recommendation being that taller buildings be located to the southeast, such as along the Main St., Metcalf, Hilyard area.
Mid-rise in this application would probably mean six stories if I had to guess, but I'm more curious how they treat parking and the arrangement of the buildings. The idea in the neighbourhood plan was around re-developing the streets in the Lansdowne area and reducing the sea of surface parking to create more of a lively community feel with storefronts and human-scale residential.
