No major news - just a request by AV at TEYCC for a working group to come up with a redevelopment plan:

And, four years later, movement -- this from Cressy's newsletter:

Scadding Court Community Centre (SCC) is an integral part of our community. As a hub that provides programs and services for residents of all ages, with a connection to the Toronto Public Library's Sanderson Branch, it's important to ensure these critical facilities are improved, and expanded, to continue to meet the needs of the community.

As you may know, conversations about redeveloping the community centre, Sanderson Library, and the outdoor pool, have been ongoing for many years. Discussions about principles for the redevelopment have occurred and a feasibility study was previously initiated.

As all of these facilities play a vital role in our community, and have been in operation for more than 40 years, it's time we update the feasibility study and move forward with revitalizing these spaces and enhancing these much needed services. Last week, we held a community consultation to discuss principles as we move forward in the discussion to rebuild the community centre, library and pool, and consider expanding the services at Scadding to further meet the needs of our growing community.

Thanks to everyone who joined me at Scadding Court Community Centre last week to share feedback on how we should improve not only the physical space, but the programs and services at this important community hub.

Stay tuned for updates and details on the next public meeting for this vital community space.
 
There's an in-person community consultation meeting at the Scadding Court Community Centre on January 8, 2025. There's no descriptive details online about this that I can find but I called the community centre and they advised that the meeting will discuss zoning and redevelopment possibilities for the facility in the future.

I don't know which, if any of these, the City has elected to pursue. But they were considering some of the following back in 2022:

I like the second the one the most in terms of its campus-like form and the way it addresses the natural view terminus formed by the curve in Dundas, and the way it continues the street in a phantom pedestrian form while integrating the micro-retail as distinct volumes (retaining their identity). The placement of the apartment above the hall does warrant some additional thought though- what’s stopping them from putting a few more floors over just one?

The first one is fairly conservative and workable, I have doubts about the viability of the outside courtyards in the third scheme.
