Of note here, I believe the Harvey's on Queen has reopened.
It's on the corporate website again anyway.

Yeah, based on what we heard at the CreateTO board meeting's in-public section yesterday it sounds like the relocation of the City-run "Beaches Employment Centre" is now an issue...

Slide from an Affordable Housing panel last week shows the current planned stats on the site... but our volunteers expect the site to have revisions in the Fall of 2022...

Hopefully - a simpler built-form and more units/density in order to off-set the increased construction-costs and interest-rates.What kind of revisions?

Apparently the Final Report (zoning) on this one is still planned for this quarter, which means the next Community Council meeting I presume, unless they merely mean, in to the City, in which case a report may be a few months away yet.

No change in the risk descriptions, which I find odd frankly; CMHC is just sad.............and the local opposition is, what it is; but the fact that the relo of City services remains on that list after several months is peculiar to me.
