It seems clear to me they're just talking about the transit-oriented community. Basically just saying, "Since you really jacked up the density over there, we're sure you won't mind if we go big on height and density too, on our land."

Lol damn, two four-lane boulevards

9,000 units here and, what, another 10-15,000 next door closer to the subway? All serviced off of what’s really going to be 3 streets (1 from Bayview, one from Yonge, one from High Tech).

Anecdotally to me it seems the capacity crunch for many four lane roads is the left turn, not the through lanes.

 

[afransen]

Yes. The intersections may need to be four+ lanes, but it's likely two travel lanes are sufficient between intersections.

Was this transaction ever reported? Didn't realize the government sold land to them...

Ontario has been quietly vending excess land for a while now.

 

[TJ O'Pootertoot]

Yeah, that's likely some useless surplus land left over from the highway. It probably all factored in when they did the mzo and TOC deal.
