In a spot where the City only wants 12 storeys or so? I suppose if it's pretty beefy.

42

Perhaps it's a longer play to get more density once a transit station avails itself?

If we went full beef, it would be 12x 30448 = 365367 GFA to play with, if you used the whole site as a massive block, that would bring it to $157/sq ft GFA. Probably not approvable.
At 8x density, the rate would be $238 which seems a bit high but I could see rates being that high in this location for land purchases. I wonder what Greenland paid on a rate per buildable to the North?

Heard Empire will launch a Queens Quay project in Spring 2019.

Ugh? launch what, nothing has been submitted to the city?

178-180 QQ E has submitted.

178-180 QQ E has submitted.

For a plan of subdivision - not SPA or rezoning.

Mind you, if Empire is not planning on rezoning (which seems crazy given the price they paid), all they would need is SPA which wouldn't need a long lead time in front of sales.

Good question, I believe they paid $160MM CDN for the site.

re: above conversation

Turns out it was 162 Queen's Quay East, the site where Daniel's had their sales office.

See thread:

Quay House | 73.15m | 21s | Empire | Kirkor

Noticed this weekend that Greenland have got a few A-frame signs out for Lakeside - they may actually be starting to market it more aggressively.
