Site Plan Control application to permit a 4-storey commercial building with an open-air courtyard located at rear of the Subject Site. A new east-west pedestrian connection is proposed which will extend from Old York Lane in the west, through the rear courtyard, and connect to the planned east-west pedestrian connection at 101 Yorkville

Awkward. It's like the new, larger mass is threatening to lean into and crush the existing building. Certainly unique.

Great that they are expanding the laneways in Yorkville to the rear. Also is the project next door getting a redesign? Same architect?

Yes, the neighbouring project, 101 Yorkville is also designed by NEUF.

I really like what i'm seeing here, true head turner.

Lovely juxtaposition from the front, IMO. Toronto's Victorians I feel are not easy to compliment with most current styles. I find the sharp roofs end up often feeling out of place or loomed over from above. The sharp-edge brickwork above their rooflines here that steps back to give it space is really quite striking and complimentary, at least in the renderings. I agree that from the aerial views the shape looks awkward. Hopefully it's not perceptive as an awkwardness from street level as in their renders.
