can you share them with us or direct us to them?

Whats your source? there's only one street access entry door, so even if there were some restaurant/eating space, i imagine it would be a fast casual take-out geared spot with some seats run by the Marcheleo, similar to the Rabba/Paramount model

great shots

nvm, found it. lobby and residential library amenity. not very lively

this could potentially be a very exciting and defining corner for the city. can someone remind me if retail is planned for the ground level of the residential block fronting the plaza?

i spoke with the new tenant and interior designers when they were having a site visit, just happened to be walking by. They didnt disclose details but said it would be a food hospitality place (cafe, bistro, cocktail bar).

Oh believe me, I did. from every angle. Just wasn't working out

Well this is (potentially) exciting. Some interior fit out work and equipment have shown up inside. Though no permit is displayed anywhere yet. Apologies for the poor photo, very strong reflections this morning.

i think live-work units similar to those across mill street would be an appropriate mix at grade here

oh yes i do know that, it's perhaps a little too on the nose but still decently clever. I meant more so the light levels in the space. the light is far too overly dispersed, bright, and homogenous. It translates to a big overhead hotspot. If they brought down the brightness of the 'roof'...

am i wrong or is that just curtain wall stick system with no glass in it yet?

Late into fall, podium brick has finally begun. Looks to be the same colour, but far less metallic in finish, and of course hand-laid. Very refreshing to see hand-laid brick in a sea of precast brick panels on condos these days.

probably glass. there are huge delays in glass right now. as seen, none of the window wall has been installed on this project yet, which at this stage would usually at least see half the building's window wall installed, or more. they may be in a position to temporarily seal the openings...

those are roll-up doors, yes?

it has been done on a couple corners, parliament and king being one of them

they did include it, they are here..

is there a project forum for this new neighbouring application by Streetcar? https://www.blogto.com/real-estate-toronto/2022/09/641-queen-street-east-toronto/

I’m certain there are some exceptions, but I do think more unique and quality restaurant ventures in Toronto tend to favour older, character rich buildings that are retrofitted. Hence why most of the new exciting restaurants like Bar Reyna and Spaccio in the east end are actually in Corktown and...
