This is one of the buildings just approved at the marathon August City Council meeting. It's been cut by one storey to 34 stories and the podium specifically has been cut from eight storeys to six storeys. The building will be 120.5 m tall or 395 feet. The number of units drops from 470 to 446.

^ LOL

It's been years. Since it's been approved hopefully they at least demolish the houses soon.
 
On a somewhat related note, I wish more new buildings in Toronto would allow for climbing ivies if their podiums are brick. It can help soften up a podium that looks sterile and bland.

It's amazing how fast nature takes over; it's been only a couple of years. Makes me think of the book "The World Without Us"

There was a show on Discovery (I think) a while back that covered the same thing. Life After People or something, a very interesting watch

Detroit is an interesting example of nature taking over again
 
Off topic, but I watched this interesting documentary a while ago, that shows what would happen if all humans were to disappear.

Looks like the houses east of Redpath are not going to be around for too long:
