    In terms of price vs size, definitely. Thanks for the good point. Also many of those single family homes are actually split into multiple units.

    Building homes is great. 20 Storeys at that site is not. And I believe these are being promoted as "Luxury" Condos, very expensive. It's not like it's something that will help the housing shortage in the city.

    I'm saying they don't give a s**t about the Church. It's their loophole to develop the site.

    Live in a "house on the street". Jeez... You do realize they're building this for profit, right? They're not donating the proceeds to the church/community or anything. They will make a lot of money! Helping rebuild the Church is almost a loophole (can't develop it if they don't...)

    Sure they can. And they do! I come from a family of builders/developers. Many projects like this don't even end up happening, get stopped due to community backlash (and lots of lawyers...) Anyways, if this happens, I'll be moving away before construction even starts, so in the end I guess...

    This is a much bigger project than those. As for eternal darkness, yes, I know from where my home is it will be shaded almost the entire day if not literally the entire day. You honestly would want to live directly across the street from this? Or directly beside it? I've already been told by...

    well, as the old cliche saying goes - There goes the neighbourhood! People love living in the Annex because it's not full of giant high-rise condos. There's lots of land to develop in Toronto, downtown and elsewhere. I just feel strongly (as someone who currently lives here) this site is...

    Nearby could mean 6 blocks away...

    You are right about name-calling being unwise. It was totally sarcastic, and has been deleted. As for the rest, it all sounds good in theory, but it's not reality. Question - do you want to live next door or across the street from this? And you have no fear that in an area with no building...

    Regardless, I've heard that many neighbours in all directions from this site are planning to fight this very hard. We'll see if it ever ends up actually happening.

    Do you live nearby? Next door? Across the street? Or are you merely a detached spectator who is admiring the "Art" of the project? Is your home now going to be covered in full shade at all times due to this enormous tower blocking the sun? Do you have little children living on the street...

    This proposed condo is way too tall for the area. Should not be allowed, hopefully won't be allowed. This will ruin a great neighbourhood. Twice the height of anything nearby? Please no!!!!
