Origin
Summary
This Report recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law for the site municipally known as 2823, 2825, 2827 and 2829 Eglinton Avenue East to permit the development of a 14 storey (49.3 metre including mechanical penthouse) mixed-use building containing 190 residential units and retail uses on the ground floor. The development is proposed to contain 15,231 square metres of residential gross floor area and 672 square metres of retail with one level of underground parking. Access to the underground garage is proposed from one driveway to the rear of the site off Oswego Road.
The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024). The proposed development also conforms to the City's Official Plan. It would provide housing options in a mid-rise form, intensifying an underutilized site along Eglinton Avenue East consistent with the emerging context.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law.
