I can see more of these types of proposals along the horizon, quite a few candidates for redevelopment at Dufferin & Eg.

Did Metrolinx acquire this property as a part of Crosstown?

You wouldn't have seen 30 storeys proposed on this stretch 5 years ago.

I don't care for the way this meets the street at all.
Looks very clunky.
The taller portion has some potential.......but the set-back, shorter bit doesn't work for me at all.
That apartment complex next door has a terrible street presence too........sigh..........
I do like the revamped parkette/plaza at the corner.
Done properly the abutting building would feature restaurants with patios facing out on said plaza/park.

I wouldn't have high hopes. That looks like to be the station entrance, and when have we ever known Metrolinx/TTC to provide value-add to their station designs.
On the bright side, the streetscaping here looks really good. I am happy with the corner parkette. Eglinton looks lovely with the dedicated bike lane too.

The revamped plaza is happening as a part of the work for the Crosstown, not a part of this project.

Ahhh, right.......that explains why it looks hopeless clunky...........and poorly thought out.
For some reason I was forgetting that was going on that corner.

I think the tower looks solid but further fine tuning can be done on the podium frontage along Eglinton. The public realm improvements at Dufferin & Eg are definitely a huge plus. I used to spend a lot of time in this area, but not so much in the past decade.

Wow! We got the curved punctured window look for this building's facade ! It's going to look great when this project is complete as seen in the photos up above !

This is Kingsett as noted in the planning docs uploaded. Let's see if they build it or flip the rezoned land to another dev.

I'm really curious how this one will sell and pricing. I think they are the first major condo for this area since crosstown has been announced?

Empire Midtown is the only thing that's been sold. There are others in various stages of the entitlement process but nothing has yet advanced to sales.
