I just realized my rendering is missing 5 towers and various mid-rises between Cityplace and the Fort York neighbourhood.... essentially the western-most Blocks of the Railway Lands (located just east of Bathurst). The city is developing the northern portion and I think Wittington owns the rest.... amazing density one day.

Despite having different owners/developers... almost everything from the CNE to Skydome (between the rail corridor and Lakeshore) is being built from scratch and could be viewed as one enormous (almost seamless) urban renaissance.

Are you going to update your rendering?

any takers??

Hard to believe that L Tower (Libeskind), ShangriLa, Burano and others have sold the majority of suites... before opening to the public (or even building a sales centre for that matter)... hopefully this will fast track them straight to construction.

The economy is strong, or people really want to live here!

I guess that's the reason.



Below are pictures of Pure Spirt under construction in Toronto right now!

Wow, Pure Spirit really shot up quick. When I was there in September of last year, it was a HUGE hole in the ground.

Anyone know anything about Wittington Properties looking at putting up a 39 and a 32-storey condo along with a 14-storey mixed-use tower and street townhouses? There is a sign on the site referencing application number 06 199698 STE 22 but I can't seem to find anything more on the application for rezoning.

I really want to see what they are looking at for the area. Any info, most appreciated.
