I suppose the Tesla Supercharger stations will be moved underground, with hopefully still free access (unlike the situation at Hotel X). Important once Superchargers in Canada allow other EVs to charge and assuming not every parking space will allow for charging. I know cars should not be the focus here, but it's something to keep in mind given current trends.

Why should Superchargers be free? Shouldn't you pay to refuel your car?

I suppose I've given up with paid parking at malls; drivers feel that everyone should subsidize their parking spaces, that seems a given. I haven't given up though, I suppose, on drivers of electric vehicles assuming they should get to charge them for free, That's just one step of entitlement beyond belief.

Supercharging isn't free, except for Tesla owners who bought before 2017, who also get free wifi. Everyone else has to pay, but it isn't nearly as much as gasoline.

Interesting. How is it that pre-2017 Tesla owners get it for free? Chargeback to Tesla?

(I do know it's much less expensive that filling a tank with gas, and I am all for people going electric autoshare.)

I guess it was one of the perks of being an early adopter.

Tesla operates the Supercharger network. They bundled lifetime charging with cars sold until 2017.
 

1800 Sheppard Avenue East - Virtual Community Consultation Meeting​

Monday, Jul 11 2022
6:30 PM - 8:00 PM

Agenda​


The City of Toronto Planning Division has received an application to amend the City of Toronto Official Plan and Zoning By-law application for the property at 1800 Sheppard Avenue East.

The proposal is for the redevelopment of the existing 18.8 hectare site with a multi-phased development. The multi-phased redevelopment includes a total of 12 new buildings, with height ranges between 18 and 58-storeys, 7,840 square metres of parkland dedication, a multi-use trail, new public and private streets, and a total of approximately 4,700 residential dwelling units. A total of 317,000 square metres of residential gross floor area and 40,000 square metres of non-residential gross floor area are proposed for an overall total site density of 2.5 times the area of the lot. The existing CF Fairview Mall will be retained.

Join us at the Virtual Community Consultation Meeting to participate in discussions on the application and have your say.
