March 26
Mod Note Both this thread and 60-78 Agnes are now one project known as 55 Dundas Street West at this time and may change to an Agnes address down the road.
51-55 Dundas st w will be an 8 story residential with 2 floors for commercial for the whole block on Cook St where it ties into the residential 35 story Agnes tower that is not a fix in stone at this time and maybe reduce in the end. The existing daycare will be moved into the west side of the 35 tower like the Edge Tower.
There will be 6 levels of parking for 231 cars with just under 500 bike spaces wand the access to the parking is off Cook St. Parking is a combination for commercial, visitors and residents. Number of units been used now is about 550 subject to final design with 34 3 bedrooms. No idea if it will have affordable housing in it and something the city trying to do these days for new developments.

The area is currently zone for 18 story towers, but the official new city plan is calling for taller towers as per the province requirements.

I have requested a PDF of the project as the screen shots where not great.

As a note, 57 Dundas that is currently a plaza will only be 8 floor high at this time to maintain a midrise look for Cooksville on Dundas and I have issues with it.

Interesting choice for preservation of a heritage property lol ... I'll admit I'm ignorant on the history of it, but purely from an aesthetic/architectural perspective, this is a bit of a dump ... Also doesn't retaining this property go against the City's priority of wanting to widen Dundas close to Hurontario to make room for an additional thru lane once the BRT is built?

Worse things have qualified as “heritage” (cough, Union station train shed) so once this building gets restored, maybe it won’t be so bad?

What happens at the bridge on Dundas going over cawthra. It’s only two lanes currently.

According to a heritage review the developer commissioned, it was built in 1913 as a general store.

In 1877, David Oscar Schiller opened a flour and seed business in a wood-framed building on the property. The business grew over the years and Schiller expanded the business by constructing a new building in the 1900s. In 1913, a two-storey brick-clad building with an attached one-storey dwelling was constructed on the Site, replacing the existing one-storey general store. The new store included a cement basement for stocking.
David’s grandsons Thomas and James Schiller operated the store after their grandfather’s death shortly after the store opened.The Schiller store began to offer, in addition to groceries, other items like hardware supplies, medicine, clothing, and automobile parts.Thomas “T.D” Schiller sold the store prior to his death in 1930. A one-storey concrete block commercial addition was constructed aſter 1939.
Since its construction the building on the property has been used by a number of tenants and there have been various alterations to the building. Refer to Section 2.2 for more detail on the alterations. The building on the property is currently in use as a salon, printing centre, and tax company.
