It is nice to finally see the sort of densification along Yonge Street from Gerrard to Bloor that should take place along a subway line. The proposed 58 story towers replace one of the most out of place, suburban, decidedly 1970's buildings and the replacement of the current block-long, 2 story, wood-clad monstrosity is most welcome;
It is a shame that the massing proposed seems to thrust 58 stories straight up from street level and does not feature any 'step-back' elements but if there is a place in the city that this sort of scale of development should be placed, this is it; I've been looking forward to the demise of this block for years, thank goodness the economy of this city has finally brought it upon us, for better or worse of what is being proposed to replace it, it is a winner for this section of Yonge.
