I agree. An urban forest park here would be a real gem. MCC has plenty of land that can host towers.

The yellow circles are slated for development but I'm not sure about the red one. I hope this block is saved because it has some beautiful Willow trees, it would make a perfect urban oasis along with the western half circle next to it.

update from my contact at the city
Hello Jason,

That site plan is for Phase 2 (3 towers). Phase 1 is SP 19-31 (2 towers). Therefore, for the whole block there will be 5 towers (Phase 1 - 48 and 36 storeys; and Phase 2 - 52, 37 and 35 storeys), 1,192 m2 of ground floor retail and a central open space park and pedestrian walkway (mews) linking Rathburn Road and Square One Drive. Below is a rendering:

Damn, that is really nice, and it'll fill in that area really well. Having 5 towers in that block will be a much better use of space in comparison to Daniels' other block next door.
