Looks promising. Does anybody know what's going to be there?
ReplyDeletea new three story building with apartments and retails uses, the blog will post more soon
ReplyDeleteThese guys are really moving along, I think we’ll find out Wednesday if there’re tearing down the entire second floor.
ReplyDeleteI had just assumed they were only taking down the south-side section. Is there a chance that the whole second-floor of this building will be torn down and replaced?
ReplyDeleteNot that this building is especially spectacular or anything, but I do like all the corner properties along Dundas which have the rounded brick on the corners. They're a pretty rare sight in Toronto where most of the streets are laid-out in a simple grid, and somewhat Junction-specific as Dundas runs at a unique angle, resulting in all sorts of strange parallelogramesque lots. I'd have thought that the distinctive look of the curved brick would make the building more attractive to buyers/renters.
I know that plans for the building are to recapture its once brilliance rounded corners and all. They even plan to use a herritage brick for the entire building with tonnes of windows. Really nice!
ReplyDeleteWent by there today and it has all been demolished!
