LCH Developments have an upcoming building planned for Kingston & Galloway listed on their website, which will include some affordable housing units. Wonder if it's for this proposal:

 
Updated project description:
Proposal for a new 10-storey residential building which would provide 165 affordable rental units. The proposed building would have a total gross floor area of 11,140 square metres and a Floor Space Index of 5.2. A total of 665 square metres of amenity space comprising of 362 and 303 square metres of indoor and outdoor space respectively, would be provided. 59 vehicular parking spaces on 1 level of underground parking garage and 142 bicycle parking spaces would be provided. The owners have applied for the City's Open Door Affordable Housing Program.

It's affordable, rental, housing, that entitles it to a measure of slack in my mind.

The building is a tad pedestrian, but I'll cut it a pass overall.

But that ground floor needs some serious tweaks.

It looks really squat, and lacks adequate delineation from the floors above.

A brief mention in this article:

Non-profits are getting $39.5 million in municipal tax exemptions, grants and other incentives to build nearly 500 affordable homes in Scarborough.

(Among the recipients: )

Also selected this year was Community Affordable Housing Solutions (CAHS) — a non-profit created last year by Habitat for Humanity GTA and St. Clare’s Multifaith Housing Society — which is partnered with Lifestyle Custom Homes Inc. to build 120 units at 144 Galloway Rd.

 
Fresh lobbying on this one, still listed as 'affordable rental housing'.

Note, however, the address now includes 142 Galloway as well: (I'm not sure if this was previously included, but the AIC did not list it)

The old SPA is still active in the AIC.

Lobbying is today fresh.
 
Resubmitted way back in June '23 and we missed it!

NOAC issued.

No sign of any 'new building' permits applied for; but the demo permit for the carwash was issued last year:
