Background:
Proposal:
The proposal is to permit the redevelopment of the site with two multi-storey,
mixed-use buildings consisting of ground level retail and commercial uses with
residential above (see Figure 1: Subject Property). The buildings are proposed
to range in height from four (4) to twenty (20) storeys (see Figure 2:.EIevation).
Cumulatively, the two buildings will provide approximately 300 residential units
and 30,000 square metres (322,913.3 square feet) of gross floor area, of which
1,200 square metres (12,916.6 square feet) will be used for commercial
purposes. The proposed development would result in a floor space index (FSI)
of 3.0.
The applicant intends to design the buildings so that the majority of the height
and density for each of the buildings will be oriented towards the intersection of
Kennedy Road South and Research Road. In this regard:
• the height of Building 'A' would taper from twenty (20) storeys in proximity
to Research Road to four (4) storeys at the south end of the building, and
• Building 'B' is proposed to taper from fifteen (15) storeys on the east part
of the building to four (4) storeys as it nears the westerly property
boundary.
