The City has received a Zoning By-law Amendment application for 1640-1660 Carling Avenue. The site in question is for the vacated Canadian Tire Building and the abutting Boston Pizza restaurant. The applicant is requesting an increase in permitted height from a current maximum of 9-storeys to a maximum range of between 9- and 40-storeys. The site would be developed in the future, through site plan control, for 6 mixed-use/residential buildings (rental, seniors, condo) for approximately 1,715 residential units, associated vehicular and bicycle parking, with a new public park, a new public road and a Privately Owned Public Space at the intersection of Clyde Ave North and Carling Ave.
A formal circulation package will be sent out next week. I will share updates on this item as it moves forward. A community heads-up email will be sent out by the City, to registered community organizations, shortly.
