New 1,700-unit #development inspired by #Milton’s natural setting There is an art when it comes to designing a modern development in Milton. A back-and-forth among architects, designers, town planners and future neighbours. The multi-step process to get from a #developer purchasing a lot to having people move in is often fraught with setbacks and compromises, by all parties. But those seem to be in the past for The Laurels, a new Mattamy Homes development planned for the west side of Regional Road 25, north of Britannia Road. Mattamy Homes is making a sustainability commitment through various initiatives to minimize its carbon footprint. These include optimizing the building envelope for energy efficiency and cost savings, using geothermal systems for heating and cooling to cut energy use, employing energy recovery ventilators for better air quality, and more.

Tenblock to Transform Tower-in-the-Park into Vibrant Urban Community Designed by BDP Quadrangle, with planning by Urban Strategies Inc., and landscape design by SvN Architects + Planners the proposal introduces three new #residential buildings: two towers of 32 and 36 storeys fronting Bathurst Street, and an 8-storey mid-rise deeper within the site, complementing the existing rental building. Collectively, the site will accommodate 1,151 units, including the 259 existing #rental units which will continue to be lived-in throughout the infill process. The revised proposal strikes a balance between increased density and community integration, with the 892 new units responding to #Toronto's growing housing demand while fitting into the local context of the area's #developments that range from 12 to 29 storeys.

52-Storey Proposal Would Convert #Office Building at Richmond and Peter A 52-storey proposal in #Toronto’s King-Spadina area would reuse the structure of a 9-storey #office building as its base. Designed by WZMH Architects for iA Groupe financier (Industrielle Alliance)and Financial Services Inc., the submission includes #affordable #rentals, alongside #retail and flexible non-#residential space. Situated at 111 Peter Street between Adelaide and Richmond streets, the site benefits from being close to #Ontario Line 3’s Queen-Spadina station, currently under #construction. Capital Developments has submitted a Zoning By-law Amendment application to the City of Toronto on behalf of Industrial Alliance, the landowner. The proposal envisions a 52-storey mixed-use tower rising 172.22m, with 852 #residential units, including 24 #affordable #rental units. The existing building would be structurally reinforced to integrate the tower into it.

35- and 39-Storey Towers Proposed Near Glencairn Station A new application from Osmington Gerofsky Development Corp would introduce 35- and 39-storey towers to a block currently developed with low-rise buildings. Designed by Wallman Architects, the dual towers in #Toronto's Glen Park neighbourhood respond to the designation of the area surrounding the subway station as a Major Transit Station Area within which the Province is enabling and encouraging higher densities. This proposal features a total Gross Floor Area (GFA) of 58,739m², for a Floor Space Index (FSI) of 10.41 on the site. The towers would rise from a six-storey podium that transitions to an eight-storey volume between the towers.

Revised Plans Submitted for Housing Now Site Near Wilson Station A multi-phase community at 50 Wilson Heights Boulevard is progressing under the City of Toronto’s Housing Now initiative, aimed at delivering a mix of affordable and market-rate housing near transit hubs on City-owned lawn. Site Plan Approval applications have been submitted in March and September this year for portions of the 8-acre site to the east of Wilson station, part of the larger development led by CreateTO that will replace surface parking lots that used to fill up when Wilson was the last station on the line. Designed by Kirkor Architects and Planners, the project involves two distinct blocks — Block 1, developed by Tridel and Block 2, developed by Greenwin Corp. Notable changes from plans last submitted in 2021 include adjustments to the heights and uses of the buildings: Block 1’s tower has been reduced from 12 storeys to 10 storeys, while the trio of towers at Block 2 each increased from 16 to 17 storeys, while planned office space has been eliminated from Block 1 following the downturn in demand, post-pandemic.

25,000 people could move into revisioned #Burlington neighbourhood The entire project consists of several high-density #residential towers along with #office buildings and stores. In total, almost 30 buildings would occupy the sites ranging from 12 to 45 storeys and cover 20.67 hectares (51.08 acres). Its current status has it in the pre-application stage which means the developer — Alinea Land Corporation — has not formally requested the necessary zoning and other regulation changes needed to allow for high-density #residential use.
