Summary

EllisDon Corporation is constructing a 13-storey institutional building (the new University of Toronto Schwartz Reisman Innovation Centre) at 112 College Street. The site is located on the north side of College Street, east of University Avenue. The north sidewalk and a portion of the westbound curb lane on College Street, abutting the site, is currently closed for construction staging operations. Toronto City Council at its meeting on June 29 and 30, 2020 authorized the subject construction staging area on College Street from July 1, 2020 to January 31, 2021. The developer has requested an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on College Street, as the site has experienced a number of construction delays due to issues arising from COVID-19.

 

EllisDon Cooperation is requesting to extend the duration of the construction staging area on College Street for an additional seven months (i.e. from February 1, 2021 to August 31, 2021), to allow for the construction of the development to be completed. 

 

Transportation Services has been consulted and have no objections to the proposal.
