Is it just me or is Whole Foods seems a bit high end for the Demographics of the area?
I think Yonge and Eglington or Yonge/St Clair would be more appropriate expansion locations. I mean, sure there's York Mills but it's mostly south of the 401 right? Srry I haven't been back to T.O for 5 years.

People though will drive several miles for Whole Foods. There's another one going up at Square One in Mississauga, which is also a "middle income" area, but which will likely draw many of it's patrons from the Mississauga Rd. area, 5+ miles away.

York Mills is only 1km or so South of here.

It's a lot bigger than the supermarket that sat there when the aerial picture was taken (light green roof), but remember Whole Foods stores are often over 60,000 square feet.

Wow another addition for NYCC. I prefer 5/8ths Foods, myself.

Toronto is clobbering every North American city in highrise construction right now.

Toronto needs to if it has designs on passing Chicago/closing the gap with New York. The city will need another 30 years of monster growth.

GROW!

Nothing doing with regards to demolition on this one yet, but it shouldn't be long now.

It's going to be even more interesting seeing what get's approved for the south western corner of the intersection!
I can guarantee you it'll be around 700 feet tall.

Excavation has begun on this project now. It is a large site will not be technically under construction for some time, might be 7 to 8 months before they hit bottom and pour the pads for the cranes.

Still this will change the face of North York.
