Here's some random photos of the parking lots and back and side of the buildings that will be demolished.. I figure Street View can show you the building's fronts. Work continues on converting the old York Event Theatre into the sales centre.

This application was approved yesterday. Technically, it's in the OMB appeal period for the next 20 days, but I doubt it will get appealed. If the mods want to change the title to reflect the height increase that would be boss.

Any idea what the grocery store might be?
 
I'm betting Loblaws… I should clarify that I have no insider knowledge on that.

Anyway, we now have a sizeable dataBase entry for this building, and a front page story which links to it. Check em' both out starting here.

At one time (a while ago though) there was a rumour for Whole Foods here ... but not sure if there is a market for that
 
There is certainly a market for whole foods at Y&E. Right between Forest Hill and Leaside, surrounded by condos with young owners, and on top of a future underground LRT line. Other than the one in Yorkville i cant think of a better place for a whole foods.
