The proposal contemplates a 44-storey mixed-use building with 455 residential units, retail space at the ground floor and a 266 square metre privately owned publicly-accessible open space (POPS). The existing structures on the site would be demolished for the redevelopment of the site.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and the Provincial Planning Statement (2024) and conforms with A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020) as well as the City's Official Plan. The proposal contributes to an emerging intensifying mixed use community at the southeast corner of Markham Road and Ellesmere Road.

The proposal is organized around a central courtyard and consists of a 12-storey building massing fronting onto Victoria Park Avenue, with lower building heights along Greylawn Crescent, Lynvalley Crescent and the east side of the site. Non-residential uses are proposed at grade. The building is intended to be constructed with modular prefabricated heavy timber and has been designed to achieve Tier 4 of the Toronto Green Standards.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The building would contain 185 rental housing units with a total gross floor area of 16,217 square metres, inclusive of 1,425 square metres of non-residential uses, resulting in a density of 3.30 times the area of the site. A total of 62 one-bedroom units, 96 two-bedroom units and 27 three-bedroom units are proposed. The proposed development would be supported by a total of 126 vehicular parking spaces, as well as 158 bicycle parking spaces.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and the Provincial Planning Statement (2024), and conforms with A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020). The proposed development also conforms to the City's Official Plan. It will add rental housing stock to the an existing apartment corridor along Victoria Park Avenue, and utilizes a very high level of sustainable building techniques reducing the overall carbon footprint related to its construction.</p>

<p>This Report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.</p> |

<p> </p>
<p>On May 22, 2024, City Council adopted a settlement offer related to the Zoning By-law Amendment application for the subject site which permits the lands at 673 Warden Avenue to be redeveloped with a 27-storey mixed use building with a 6-storey podium. The development would have a total gross floor area of approximately 21,909 square metres, of which 21,560 square metres is residential GFA and 348.4 square metres is non-residential GFA. A total of 314 residential units are proposed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A detailed Land Use Compatibility Assessment, including Nosie Impact Study, was prepared by Gradient Wind Engineering Inc. to support the proposed development at 673 Warden Avenue. This assessment recommends the site for a Class 4 designation as defined in the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks publication NPC-300. The study was peer-reviewed by Valcoustics Canada Ltd., the engineering consultant for an adjacent non-residential landowner (Tradition Fine Foods) which offers concurrence with the recommendation that a Class 4 area designation for the site is appropriate.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A Class 4 Area designation allows for higher daytime and night-time sound level limits than would otherwise be permitted in relation to a noise sensitive land use such as residential dwellings and associated outdoor living areas. Any impact of such higher levels would be mitigated by noise control measures that are part of the development. Similarly, the slight increase in permitted noise levels provides for the continued operation of surrounding employment uses and compatibility with those uses and new residential uses on the subject lands. The Class 4 designation would apply to this development site only. Any future developments on other sites in proximity to employment uses in the Warden Woods Secondary Plan area would be subject to a separate peer-review process.</p> |
