Dorsay and its joint-venture partner successfully received Official Plan Approval for mixed use development on this parcel of land

Maybe closer to 40 storeys....

Alto is listed as 2 x 38 st & 26 st on UrbanToronto. Anyways, a nice high-rise cluster is forming at Sheppard/404 with this and Heron's Hill. Our highways are becoming quite interesting drives to go high-rise sight-seeing.

Alto looks to be about 44 floors to me.

Also it's nice to see Montreal starting to get a lot of proposal. I very much would like to see pictures of these when the begin construction.

As posted by jlousa in the Vancouver forum, this hotel is proposed between the two towers of the Telus Garden development.

You can see the existing building sandwiched between the two towers in this rendering, so you have an idea of where the new building will go.

^^That's a really dumb-looking proposal. Should have went for a more robust massing... instead they miniaturized the standard point tower, complete with fake low-rise street wall... only to be sandwiched next to the most bulky-scaled projects in the city. The scale doesn't match at all, it looks ridiculous.

I totally disagree
