From the Development Applications page from the city's website, there is a document with some conceptual statistics. Looks like a midrise development is slated to go here, with three masses at 16, 11, and 20 storeys respectively.

architectsAlliance could very well have been retained to just conduct a feasibility study or concept design for the site, so who knows what will actually end up getting built here, but interesting to see that there has been some background work done. Based on the drawing title, the project was at the OMB.

Scale seems reasonable for the neighbourhood - glad to see that it won't be a point-tower development.

This sounds right, when I spoke to the Greenland they mentioned you'd have to be above floor 20 for a lake view in the future building just North of this land.

The Development Applications page on City website is not a building application. It is to formalise the land-swap the City wants so that Lower Sherbourne can be widened and realligned

Fair enough, but there is a PDF in the application that lists "Building Statistics" for a concept design for a development on the site. There is movement on the property for a reason.

Yes, to build the new east-west road running immediately north of this site and south of the development occurring on the north block(s) of this site.:

I get that; I recognize that the application is for the subdivision of a property and for the creation of a new road. What I am saying is that it is extremely likely (take the hint) that the proponent of the site already has a development very much ready to go here, and that the subdivision was the thing holding that process back. Expect to see a development proposed here soon.

Yes. I certainly expect a development proposal for the south part of this large block before long but suspect that the 'urgency' is the already submitted proposal for the northerly section and the need to solidify the property lines.

This application is good news! No need for those parking lots

Right by Monde? They could’ve gone for higher no?

Monde's tower portion is to the North of the site, adjacent to Greenland's phase 1 (40+ stories). This is the South side, where Monde's podium isn't over 12 stories.

I am assuming Daniels is the owner of the smaller parcel of land, where Daniels's sales office currently is. Remaining as a parking lot ? The size is simply too small for anything.

I was referring to where the Daniels sales office at, west of 178-180 QQ E. I don't think that's part of Greenland Lakeside

OK, yes that small parking lot/sales office appears to have separate ownership - maybe Daniels? I will not be surprised to see it folded into the Greenland project as it is a small site not easy to develop by itself.

The Daniel's sales office closed sometime back (June 22nd is ringing a bell for some reason).
