711 rental units near the Eglinton Cross-town (Line 5) LRT station. Continues an odd phenomenon of proposals that are inches short of the 200 metre benchmark lol.
20 development applications were adopted by Toronto City Council this month, advancing zoning permissions for projects ranging from mid-rise infill buildings to waterfront towers that add up to 11,889 new housing units for the city. The approvals would deliver more than 4,400 purpose-built rental units, of which 596 are secured affordable rental homes.
The approvals include a number of towers in the 60 to 70 storey range such as Phase 1 at Quayside along the waterfront and towers on Yonge. READ the story here:
Rendering is so soul-less, the actual build may have a shot at looking a bit better. And the tower is set back a ways from Queens Quay and will be hemmed in a bit by better looking buildings lol.
A least the giant parking garage that stained the waterfront was demolished to make way for the mixed use residential (condo and rental) and retail tower. I wonder if they upped the rental element and reduced the condos... since it's starting. Below is the garage halfway demolished.
