I rode by this last week and was surprised anything was being developed. I was hoping for towers too, but I'd rather this than 20 more years of surface parking lot across the street from a beautiful park. Same with what looks like a substantial downsizing of The Shift. It'll build momentum towards the bigger picture -- Parks 2, the eventual redevelopment of Boston Pizza, etc.

Again what could have been.

No doubt it does look nice but especially with the market the way it is I think we are still in the win column right now.

It would have been tall, but not attractive.

Now it is short and less attractive.

 

[Didama]

easier to hide that way ;-)

Rumor is that Westrich wants to go higher than six storeys for this building, not highrise level, but higher. We will see if that pans out.

 

[IanO]

It's 7 storeys.

Rumor...squashed???

Please make a floor 7 1/2!

 

[MattPT]

By the rendering it actually does technically look like 8.5 including the roof access plus a little extra

I hate that I have to ask now, but the brick in this isn't that wallpaper brick, right Ian??

 

[IanO]

It's brick veneer and not wallpaper, no.
