The 212 KW proposal has is proposes some interesting design attempts to decreasing how imposing the south wall to 1 Jarvis will be. If both projects are viable and can reach agreements, there will be a cost savings to just having a wall without design elements.
City staff receive the consultation request from 1 Jarvis on May 4, and began working on it nearly immediately; a date for the staff Development Review Team meeting is almost set, once this occurs, I'll pull the file again and provide more information in a report.
My usual practice is to await the DRT stage before reporting on concepts because they are very fluid in the early stages, and will change.
In this instance, there is a strong news value to reporting there is a consultation request only due to the interface with 212 KW.
