Nice. Hope this is the beginning of more of the same. With the GO station at the bottom of Browns and the connection to the Lake Shore street car line (will it ever function again?), not to mention the 427/QEW this is a good candidate for various forms of intensification. Now can they deal with...

Why? What is the magic of 30 storeys? I‘ve lived and worked in plenty of cities where buildings are commonly less then 10, less then 6 in height. Great working and living environments with livable neighbourhoods. I am not understanding the singular preoccupation with bigger then 30 storeys is...
