Banality is the theme.

Not to mention other towers already approved and about to start

Another Large new proposal at 4615 Hurontario in Mississauga including 9 more condo towers of 28 to 45 storeys. Sorry for the poor picture quality - took photo from my car as I drove past - signs were just being erected.

I may have missed it, did they get the extra height they were asking for?

So construction is continuing - without construction workers?

How do you keep a GC and other trades available and engaged when construction shuts down regularly? you keep paying them. This must be costing Mizrahi a fortune. I'm sure there must be delivery dates being pushed back considerably as well, with appropriate penalties. Ouch.

Likely Oxford will simply put the project on hold until they feel they can get a better deal. They have plenty of lucrative deals on the go or on the precipice (Union Park and others) to focus its time and resources on instead of a development that just had its ROI gutted.

Yes, but if we stick with that plan, they shouldn't build another building downtown since T.O. is absolutely unable to build transit.

I haven't been on this site in some time - does anyone know if Mizrahi was successful in getting the increased floor count he was asking for?

Agreed....what was our strength again?

Cities are changing. By your definition, the city of Dubai would be suburban - It's a cluster of individual non-connected high rises - cities grow differently today. Today, there are as many cars travelling from Toronto to Mississauga as there are other way. Square One shopping centre...

Mississauga has a population of about 812 356 Peel Region has a population of almost 1,500,000 - the same as Calgary hardly suburban anymore

That's why it's impossible to get transit built in Toronto. Let's analyze it to death - propose a different plan, study it - then analyze it to death - propose a new plan, study it - then analyze it to death - over and over and over.

I love the absolute girth of the structure that is being slowly built. It looks like at could carry twice the building it is about to carry
