Colliers trying to get one of the Port Lands sites shifted:

Industrial For sale — Ontario | Canada | Colliers

Colliers International (“Colliers” or the “Advisor”) has been retained exclusively for the sale of 115 Saulter Street South (the “Property” or the “Site”), an extraordinary re-development opportunity

The suggested massing is just conceptual of course, but 6 and 10 storeys seems to be on the light side. Ultimately, the Portlands are a huge space to develop in the future and a mix of different types of format size and forms are welcomed, but I think the suggested potential scale needs to be expanded towards the 20 to 30+ storey range to make this an attractive initial entry into the district.

I don't have the maps, but I assume the height is because of the YTZ flight paths. I know Bousfields would not be recommending something so low if there wasn't a reason for it.

I don't have the maps, but I assume the height is because of the YTZ flight paths. I know Bousfields would not be recommending something so low if there wasn't a reason for it.

Billy Bishop has a 2% grade flight path like most aiports, and this one is over 4km from the runway, so the height limit here would be in the 80-90 metre range. Not crazy tall, but more than 10st.

The planning policy applicable in the Portlands is unbelievably complex, I believe the old Metro Toronto Official Plan still applies in some capacity from what I recall, so I won't bother to go look up what the designation is here, but the 10 storeys is likely coming out of planning regulations and not airport zoning.

This site was sold in May for 30 mill to Castlepoint Numa, by Colliers, as noted above, on behalf of a numbered company. It's designated RA. (Regeneration Areas.)

Nice to see Cobe's name on a Portlands residential proposal (east of the Villiers Island community plans!) and nice to see the tantalizing split truncated pyramid massings.

Thank you!!! What caught my eye is the planned black box film studio in the centre of the podium.
