Big application here, multiple buildings on an what would be an Employment Lands conversion by the looks of it.

7 buildings, both mid-rise and hi-rise proposed.

Were you still up or already awake?

I woke up at about 4:47am; after turning in around 12:20am.

Sadly, not atypical for me.

I went back to bed later and stole another hour........

Of note from the Planning Rationale Report:

 

[cd concept]

Wow! The number of proposed highrises and skyscrapers being added to this city and the Golden horseshoe this year is amazing!

 

[Midtown Urbanist]

This one seems rather bold, being an employment lands conversion.

Preliminary Report on this one to next week's Planning and Housing Ctte:

List of 'issues' is long, but fairly pro-forma for an Employment Lands conversion request, and one putting high density residential next to a rail corridor.

Mail listed subject area in a 'Kennedy Crossing Regeneration Area Study' -- https://www.toronto.ca/city-governm...ves/kennedy-crossing-regeneration-area-study/

I'm a little too Green to provide greater insights, but based on project plans, it seems to be supporting the plans here and the adjacent Scarborough Junction Master plan:

The Kennedy Crossing Regeneration Area Study will set out a renewed vision for the study area as it evolves from employment uses to a new mixed-use community. The Study will look at a range of components, including land use, parks and open spaces, housing, infrastructure, streets, community services and facilities and built form. Together, this work will provide an updated policy framework to guide new development on the subject lands.

Hope others can chime in thoughts or provide greater clarity.
