This is one is dated April 19, 2019 on the proponent's latest SPA submission itself, and was uploaded on April 29, 2019 on the AIC (which is I imagine why @Marcanadian posted it).
 
Yeah. It's not current. Cover sheet renderings are not legally binding, refer to the actual drawings.
 
I think the rental building should be left in place - it's decent density and fits in well with the street. That being said, other elements of this seem desirable for the location.
 
From Bailao's newsletter:

At City Council, the development proposal for 871-899 College St (formerly Azores Car Sales) was approved. The approved mid-rise proposal includes 112 residential units, 61 parking spaces and street level retail. As part of the approval, the developer will be required to replace 13 rental dwelling units at a range of rent levels to ensure this rental stock is maintained. To ensure construction of the replacement units take place quickly, the developer is required to complete the building within 3 years or be subject to fines from the city. I have also secured $600,000 dollars for local park improvements and an additional $35,000 from the developer to install a mural on the eastside wall of the building.

I also worked with residents and City staff to require the developer create a Construction Management Plan, in order to mitigate impacts in the surrounding community. These mutual agreements and community benefits are how we shape good development and I appreciate the hard work of local residents City staff and the developer to get us here.

I love that they've made an effort to break up the retail frontage instead of going with the typical monolithic glass wall. ?
