Why do residential uses require a landscape setback as well as “space for a private amenity” (?!)
 
I think that based on my perception of the location, this development is a little much. There's not much going for this part of Bathurst - no retail, fairly far from schools, right in between a river valley and single family homes. I think 5 or 6 storeys would really need to be the maximum, and it would be really nice to see the NCJW or another community organization have a presence in the new building.

“It’s a beautiful neighbourhood, and the impact of the (proposed) condo will tarnish it,” said David Cohen, 59, a longtime resident of Carscadden Drive, southwest of Bathurst Street and Finch Avenue West.

Cohen was born and raised on Carscadden Drive and moved back to his childhood home 14 years ago. His mother is the original owner of the semi-detached home, which was built in 1959.

They yellow'ish colour is a very polarizing choice...............but the existing building is no looker. I wouldn't say the new build would tarnish anything, but it won't burnish much either.

I will never suggest another building in Toronto grey...............still, maybe something a bit less in your face would engender less hyperbole. (then again, maybe not) LOL
