The phrasing is a bit confusing.. The total building heights are in fact 69 and 55 storeys.

237.8M and 138.2M pretty nice

237.8M and 138.2M pretty nice

Right-on, so one at 70s and the other 40s

237.8M and 138.2M pretty nice

That doesn't make sense. 99.6M difference in 14 floors?? Either the numbers are wrong, or the shorter tower is going to have low ceilings or the taller one is going to have a spire or other roof top feature. Although a 20M mechanical floor is pretty extravagant!

1,205 bicycle parking spaces

I wonder how many of these will be used in Yorkville?

we lose some and win more- think about four seaons 205m dominance in the north downtown now add 238m 250m and 277m its gonna be a awesome cluster

I'm not a fan of the above grade parking.

 

[Ramako]

I'm not a fan of the above grade parking.

But aren't those 7 floors of above grade parking meant to replace the public parking garage that is already there? If you put it all underground, in addition to the 3 levels for the condo parking, that would be a 10 storey excavation, which would be unprecedented in this city.

 

[BMyers]

Don't think they can go underground because the subway is too close.

One Tower may be rental and the other highend Condos..


Possible?

That is a great stat, could almost include IBE. If this goes ahead everyone would be well served to have it all happen at once. Have excavation proceeding 24 *7 and just get it done! In other two seprate projects proceeding as one.
