In recent years, the intersection of Yonge and Bloor has been the site of some of Toronto's tallest proposals and construction projects, with the 76-storey 1 Bloor East—now topped off—potentially set to be neighboured by the 84-storey The One. The surrounding Bloor-Yorkville area has also been a hotbed for new development, as a glut of point towers re-shapes the neighbourhood into one of Canada's foremost high-rise clusters. Now, a new Menkes Developments proposal at 771 Yonge Street—just north of Bloor—calls for a slender 49-storey residential tower to rise immediately across Asquith Avenue from the Toronto Reference Library.
