A community consultation meeting will be held next year on a developer's proposal to build 405 rental units in a nine-storey and an 18-storey apartment building at 63 and 73 Widdicombe Hill Blvd. where two 17-storey apartment buildings currently exist and will remain.
Two more apartment buildings may soon be coming to Eglinton Avenue West and Kipling Avenue in central Etobicoke.
The owner of
63 and 73 Widdicombe Hill Blvd. is proposing a redevelopment plan to add a nine-storey and an 18-storey apartment building to the property, the site of two existing 17-storey apartment buildings, which will remain.
Etobicoke York community council recently voted to direct city planners to schedule a community consultation meeting on the application, together with Etobicoke Centre Coun. Stephen Holyday, who represents the area.

• Two apartment buildings of 461 rental units currently exist on the site and will remain.
