I'm curious to see what $PSF they price this at - If it gets approved - As it's definitely going to be cheaper than little Italy, less than Annex, and probably more similar to Liberty Village pricing.

Brings a lot to its site and sets the bar high -- it's exactly what you'd want from creative midrise infill projects. Hopefully it will invite clones and inspire one-uppers throughout the avenues.

Not sure I like the set back at street level. I prefer a continuous wall.

Exceptional design. I would love to see this built.

I wonder if this is another Reserve Properties project? Think Motif Lofts, bbh interviewed RP's Shane Fenton yesterday and he hinted more infill projects by them were coming this year....

Love it! I hope that they don't lose the twist as it passes through the detailed design/ planning stages though. I can see it being watered down to something quite generic.

I really like it. It's exactly what the area needs.

I love the design of this building, and the way they carve out extra sidewalk space for potential cafe seating. It should make a great addition to that side of the block

Love it too. Toronto's frontier-town avenues leave a lot to be desired. It's little infills such as these that are truly signs of a maturing city. More so than Trump's and the like.

A new twist (sorry) on the stacked box concept, I really like it. There's definitely some promise as of late for the outer reaches of the city. Hopefully Scarborough and northern Etobicoke will start to see some more refined proposals like this one. And perhaps even [gasp] the rest of the GTA; with the exception of Absolute, which is fabulous, of course.

Bull in the China shop? More like the elephant! Simply overpowers the streetscape. However, nice design.

This design really should be on a corner lot instead of its current location. Really nice, though- reminds me of the 12 Degree building.
