Love the first five storeys and the larger, more functional office floor plans. Not sure about the design of the upper portion. Seems a little busy and unfocused with the patchwork of fins and unadorned curtain wall. I'm actually a little sad to have lost RAW's design for 488 with the dense horizontal fins.
 
The drawings don’t appear to be on the Dev App website anymore? Was hoping to peruse through them.
 
Interim use: The Well’s sales center. Hullmark’s new office is on the second floor:

Approved in priniciple at OLT:

Hullmark (474 Wellington) LP v Toronto (City), 2021 CanLII 115473 (ON LT)

Revised proposal:
  • [13] The current proposal contemplates a 13-storey office building incorporating at-grade retail units. There are to be three distinct five-storey volumes, which include the two listed heritage buildings on the Doubledown-owned portion of the subject site. Ms. Dale-Harris pointed out that the original proposals envisioned significantly higher towers and higher densities. She described substantial changes in the current proposal, not only in respect of the height and massing but a significant 23-25% reduction in proposed density, as well. In addition, she described changes, providing setbacks from adjacent properties, and a deliberate and sensitive arrangement of the development, where the tower portion thereof is significantly setback above the proposed five-storey volumes, achieving a clear distinction between the tower and the two heritage buildings.
