March 2023 Community Consultation Meetings

There are 3 important community consultation meetings (so far) this month – all virtual. They include 1779-1787 Bayview (35 storey LRT station building), 589-595 Eglinton Ave. E (35 storeys), 2-20 Glazebrook (34 storeys) and 1840 Bayview (34 storeys) Registration is required to attend.

If you have views on these proposals, please attend the meeting(s) below and express yourself. The LRA believes that a framework plan for these developments is urgently needed.

Wednesday, March 1, 6 – 8 p.m. (virtual)

  • 6 – 7 p.m. Discussion of 1779-1787 Bayview Avenue, an application that proposes a 35-storey mixed-use building, containing a total of 373 dwelling units and 541 square metres of retail use. The development is proposed to have a total gross floor area of 27,846 square metres, resulting in a density of 8.83 times the area of the lot. NOTE: The application includes both the Leaside station site AND the two four-unit apartment houses (quadraplexes or quads) at 1783-85 and 1779-81 Bayview. While the northernmost quad at 1783-85 Bayview is designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, 1779-81 Bayview is not. And without designation of 1779-81 Bayview, the remaining quads may be in jeopardy.
  • 7 – 8 p.m. Discussion of 589-595 Eglinton Avenue East and 61-67 Mann Avenue, an application that proposes a 35-storey mixed-use building, containing a total of 389 residential units and 60 square metres of retail use. The proposed development has a total gross floor area of 26,598 m2, resulting in a density of 13.42 times the area of the lot.
