YMCA Departure Leaves Broken Heart at Pearson Dogwood Parcel C - Will UDP Support Mend that Wound?
There's no question that the YMCA's decision to abandon the Pearson Dogwood Lands left a huge hole in this building. That said, there are other lesser issues that have been well handled, as the applicants have created a road network that, while not complete is still functional, and includes dedicated space for HandyDART vehicles. The tree covered podium, with soil 3 meters deep, was designed to provide a calming forest experience for those using the therapy pool, and for the residents of the tower. The developer, Onni, intends to retain ownership of the retail units, and the team recognized the importance of keeping the plaza activated with events. Still, no site is perfect, and the panel provided a wide range of opinions.
