a small 28-unit, 6-storey midrise is also a lot different than a 30 storey skyscraper like Rebecca and John. We'll see I guess.

Yes and no. They may have just seen it and thought it would be an easy turnaround for some quick cash. It doesn't look like they threw too much resources at it.

an OLT appeal from a neighbour of the CoA's approval has been denied. This is now approved.

Good news. Should be a great little development that will support the businesses on James. The next few years are going to be quite busy in this area for construction. I'm excited for this one and 16 Canon. Both small-ish that will add some much needed infill.

I'm very excited for this development. It's the start of parking spot free developments in the city which will show it is possible, and it's also the start of modest infill in established neighbourhoods to a degree. It shows that 6 storeys is reasonable next to 3 storeys homes, which it very much is.

I really hope this one gets built, and I hope it doesn't look like garbage.

Agreed. I'm really glad how this design turned out. Of course it could be ruined by execution, but hopefully the lack of parking makes this project far more easy to pull off with decent materials. This is truly a precedent setting project. It means future buildings of similar design can argue for reduced or no parking in future.

This looks fantastic. I'd hope they decorate the other blank vertical parts between the windows and balconies too.

If they were really smart, they'd make that a digital print (NFT-like) and sell the space to make money for the building but that would have to adhere to an art-based motif and would change based on a set time limit contract.

Now that I wrote that out, that seems like an excellent business opportunity for residential, commercial and office space to make monies.

They should just make it a giant advert screen like something in new york so they can change the art that is displayed on a regular basis

I noticed they have a permit application to construct the building. Curious that the demolition permit hasn't been issued yet.
