Television city condos | 109 m | 32 & 32 fl | Under Construction

[LRTfan]

Read through the entire staff report and if I'm Mr. Lamb, I'm headed straight to the OMB.... the staff report lists item after item that this project has in it's favour when measured up against Places to Grow. 1-2-3 bedroom units, public amenity space, retail on currently dead streets, walkable, great transit access, restoration of a heritage building, bike parking, less car parking etc.....

The report seems to intentionally leave out the fact that 1 block from this site are buildings of 28 and 32 stories (currently under construction). It only mentions buildings that are up to 22 stories on surrounding blocks.

It then makes the statement how this building will compete with Century 21 as tallest in the city....

Lots of nuggets in here for Mr Lamb's lawyers to rip apart and make a great case at the OMB.
He sent in his application before the deadline last year, so he access to the full OMB.

If I'm him, I give the city 2 options:
- OMB
- revised plan that includes demolishing the Pinehurst Mansion and building three 20-30 storey buildings on the site. Call their bluff on this stupid height restriction.
