This building will finally make Bloor into a Toyko-Style Ginza area.

Very upscale, wealthy shopping area - but also very animated

Or Anime?? Lol!

Sparsely populated site.

caltrane74 · #**207** Posted **Mar 23, 2012, 7:55 PM**

Still its moving faster than U Condos.

Gresto · #**208** Posted **Mar 24, 2012, 3:29 AM**

The pyramids of Giza were built in less time than it will take for U Condos to wheeze to a close.

Number One Bloor sounds like a corporation from Omicron Persei 8.

The excavation is 3 or so floors down. Not sure how deep its going. Somewhere between 6 and 8 floors.

Gresto · #**214** Posted **Apr 6, 2012, 2:33 AM**

That deep, eh? Then it will be at least a year until it reaches ground level. I thought this one wasn't going down so far because the subway would impede.

Gresto · #**215** Posted **Apr 6, 2012, 2:34 AM**

Any word on the 5-storey extension?

an application was filed to the city telling them that they will be going ahead with the additional 5 floors. the original 80 floor 1 bloor that got cancelled successfully got zoning, meaning the increase will not require a zoning change. (as 80 floors have already been approved) I hope we learn of the official height soon, we have no clue what the new height is.

caltrane74 · #**217** Posted **Apr 6, 2012, 3:22 AM**

So they dont really need city approval for the extra floors..

I see, thanks. They should have just gone all the way to 80 then.

lets hope they do, it would make up for the lack of supertalls if we get 7 or 8 towers between 270 and 298 meters.

Gresto · #**220** Posted **Apr 7, 2012, 1:40 AM**

Exactly!
