ORCA Project | CRAFT, Kingsmen Group Inc. and Fengate Asset Management | Safdie & Associates | LPAT approved

The proponents of the massive Safdie master-planned community was approved by the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal this week, paving the way for the city-building vision to move forward… or be ‘outted’ as the density/value exercise critics claim it is.
Caveat: unlike some other often transparent “up-zoning” efforts by developers, ORCA has submitted architectural plans, Environmental Site Assessments, servicing reports, civil engineering plans etc. etc. If this is a sleight-of-hand zoning exercise,
it’s certainly the most expensive one in city history ;-).

The Vision - decking the rail corridor from Bathurst Street to Blue Jays Way: 6 mixed-use residential towers (with skybridge connections), an office tower at Spadina and 13 acres of park/open space.

Reminder of some of the render porn for the project.

East Harbour (Cadillac Fairview)

Developer Cadillac Fairview now wants to add a half dozen residential towers (3.25 million square feet) adjacent to the new Transit Hub, in addition to the nine commercial towers previously planned for the 38 acre so-called “Employment Zone”. City zoning for the land presently permits 10 million square feet of commercial development, including offices, hotels, retail, institutional and cultural uses. There is significant opposition to the residential plan, despite the obvious fact it would make the proposal a truly mixed-use community. If the original office/commercial component is retained in the development, a new residential component (many residents would likely be employees working on-site)… it make sense to create a 24/7 neighbourhood.

[B]East Harbour Station: Cadillac Fairview wants to start construction on the Transit Hub next summer which would eventually host both GO Transit and the new Ontario Line (city LRT transit).
