This might be related to the adjacent City of Toronto Snow maintenance yard. Years ago (8+) , I heard that the city planned to vacate and sell it off in the long term. They needed like ~10years of use on the site, then it could be put up for sale. I wonder if the developer bought this land and is leasing it back to the city until they vacate it.

I'm angry that the land has just been sitting as a brownfield eyesore for quite a while now...

Can't really do much without, you know, 'a market' and 'money'...

Really pleased to see this shift to 100% rental (assuming we're moving ahead).
There is some use of colour still, which is nice, not sure about the way the colour of the lowrise brick.
