damn that's so big lol

for some odd reason everyone loves womens shelters so if it is, i don't expect tons of opposition considering there's already a couple in the area

@Amare Heard back from Mark Grimes apparently it's not going to be 1000 beds but maybe 100... the thought is it could be a womens shelter (apparently to further compliment jean tweed?)

Also Campbell's is being turned into 3 separate warehouses. @Amare so there could be a number of jobs coming back to the neighborhood

Well it's better than the data center they were trying to put there Also the parking lot plan for that small sliver of land in front of canpar has been on the Toronto development website for a while

city are trying to buy the land and make a homeless shelter the nimby's in the area are going nutsss https://globalnews.ca/news/7218286/etobicoke-planned-homeless-shelter/

noooo our only popeyes

well just remember there's a water treatment plant right across the street so ideally if you were going to do mixed use, you'd have like 5-7 towers near the south west corner of the lot and the rest would be offices. probably would want an enclosed canopy between the buildings with direct...

agreed though there is an issue there, too. south of birmingham is even worse than kipling, outside of that it's a pretty open and straight shot over a couple bridges. mind you, if the 501 turns into the 509 for this area, ridership for the 110 is going to plummet like a rock. majority of...

well...south of horner/north of lake shore is really bad too. can't push the busiest street intersection to 1 lane and if they have to expand, homes will likely need to be torn down, hydro poles relocated... and the rail lines have a bridge with a median and a shallow pit (not enough clearance)...

those buildings south of lake shore are mostly building in a park without the park absolutely no consideration on most of them for retail frontings and the ones that do make it so damn weird. there's some stores on marine parade drive, but not enough to encourage walking along the area. some...

well there is a big park on the site also can't forget 42 park lawn (MIA for the time being), the esso lot, water's edge, phoenix, 2157 lake shore (hotel) and uhh vita on the lake/vita 2 on the way

just realized their masterplan drawings listed the building heights... so now we finally have an idea how big it is https://www.2150lakeshore.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/2150-Lake-Shore_Masterplan-Drawings_Arch-D.pdf 224.8 meters is the tallest building for purposes of the title... so this...

sweet finally an esports arena

*whispers* enterance, abuting

hope lives again!

also financial post had an article, too... likely around the same comments https://business.financialpost.com/technology/shopify-poach-foreign-talent-blocked-trump-immigrant-visa-ban not paywalled, too
