Settlement Offer Increases 33 Maitland to 62 Storeys Near Wellesley Station Carlyle Communities has submitted a settlement offer to the City of Toronto for 33 Maitland Street, a short walk from Wellesley station. The revised plan, designed by BDP Quadrangle, increases the height of the tower by 13 storeys to 62 storeys while retaining more heritage elements onsite, and including an #affordable housing component. Carlyle Communities filed a motion to consolidate its appeals related to the Zoning By-law and Official Plan Amendments with the appeal of the heritage designation. Ongoing settlement discussions with City staff resulted in modifications to address heritage concerns, leading Carlyle to withdraw its appeal of the #Heritage Designation By-law and the motion to consolidate and submit this settlement offer in August, 2024. The revised proposal addresses City staff’s heritage concerns by retaining and rebuilding key elements of the 33 and 37 Maitland Street buildings. The updated plan conserves the east elevation of 33 Maitland in-situ and includes the reconstruction of the north and partial west elevations.

WEST DENTON WELCOME: It was great to welcome friends and stakeholders recently to an open morning at our exciting new Hillhead Road affordable homes development in West Denton.   Despite the weather, a good number dropped in to discover more about the £7.3 m scheme, designed by P+HS Architects, which will eventually see a mix of 45 two, three and four residential properties constructed for Karbon Homes. The properties, which are available for rent, shared ownership and rent-to-buy, are playing a significant part in helping to meet the huge demand for affordable social housing in Newcastle and the wider region. In terms of occupied plots, 25 have residents and there are a couple more awaiting imminent handover, Adderstone Living Managing Director Stephen McCoy (pictured with other team members at the event), said: “It was good to catch up with so many people, including our friends form Homes England, to let them see for themselves what a terrific scheme this is as it nears final completion. “The sustainable design, construction and placemaking we have built in are key to realising the development’s scope and vision, making it suitable for homeowners with a wide variety of needs. We are incredibly proud of what we have delivered for our client and the local community.” Zoey Hawthorne, Assistant Director of Development Delivery at Karbon Homes, said: “It’s brilliant to see this development of smart, energy efficient new homes finished and handed over to new residents. We know there’s demand in the area for affordable housing and this development is providing options for a whole range of customers.” Working with local authorities and housing associations, Adderstone Living’s ‘land-led’ solutions involve the sourcing of suitable land, scheme design and securing of planning permissions before delivering quality homes. #UKREiiF #affordablehousing #affordablehomeselling #affordablehomeselling #affordablehome #northeast #northeastengland #housebuilder
