Capreit have registered to lobby in regards to this site.

This site contains an extant 19s rental apartment building, along with surface parking and landscaping.

The reference to 'vacant' land would presumably indicate a desire to retain the existing building.

Streeview:

I assess that there are actually multiple options to add density here.

Option 1: Would be an addition to the existing building at the south end of the existing building, either in hammer-head style or an L-Shape out to the intersection.

Option 2: Would see the north end added to, either with a hammer-head or an extension of the existing slab form. The latter likely wouldn't be popular w/the City, but I digress.

Option 3: Believe it or not, if correctly placed, It looks like they could actually build a parallel slab to the existing building on their parking lot. Though this option would require an LDA, and would heavily impact existing parking during construction.

I think it'll be squat mid/high-rises on the north and sound end similar to 25 Fisherville in North York:

The challenge at the north end of the site here is likely redevelopment of the gas station parcel and the need for separation distances.

The north end still presents a viable option, but likely a less robust one vs the south.

Application is in to the AIC on this one and they surprised me by getting in 2 towers at the south end of the site.

They did that with some creative building shaping and sizing.
