[cd concept]

A stretched version, I estimated the height at 219 metres:

Did this development gain more height wow! Love to see a flyby of this colourful tower when you have the time thanks!

Now that the height is known, I'll cut my model back a little bit... to 216 metres.

That's fine a little shorter but it'll still have a present among the other tall buildings with its rustic orange columns beside them lol!

The storey count changed from 54 storey to 66 storey. The height changed from 174.00m to 216.00m. The unit count changed from 549 units to 610 units. The total parking changed from 65 parking to 62 parking.

Stats took from the architectural plan via Rezoning submission.

I love it. Those colours. The slanted crown.

Agree. It's a welcomed change from the bland vapid designs we typically get. For the most part,1990-2020 has been excruciating from an architectural point of view. No personality.

Mostly big on the bargain spandrel and little on substance and quality. /sigh

The settlement has been ratified in principle by the OLT (contingent upon satisfaction of conditions), more details here.

Feels like this might move ahead. Anyone more knowledgeable have any thoughts?

/\ Just a zoning play so it'll sit like this for awhile. They're trying to re-lease vacant Shoe Company space now.

Sorry, are you referring to the payless shoe store at the corner of Yonge-Charles? That building is not owned by Republic or Silver Hotel Group and is not part of this project. Though I've heard rumblings about a tower being contemplated there by KingSett from a few lawyers. Last I recall, they gave up and just stuck to one tower at 645 Yonge. I doubt tower separation of 5m will be acceptable to the city lol

As for when 15 Charles will go ahead - given this site is owned by the Silver Hotel Group and they recently renovated the hotel, including the commercial offerings on the ground floor, I don't anticipate this will be redeveloped at least for 5 years. But who knows! All in all, I would say @ProjectEnd is right that this is a zoning play

Right you are, my bad. KS aren't going to get a tower on that so it looks like it'll remain lowrise for now. All the Silver stuff was a great DM contract for Republic but not sure what's going to happen with those sites now. Any insight, @RepublicDevelopments?
