Description
This application proposes the development of a 32-storey residential tower on top of a 4-storey mixed-use podium for a total of 36-storeys and 271 dwelling units. The building height would be 112 metres (118 metres to mechanical penthouse). The proposal includes a 4-storey podium which incorporates 4 levels of above grade parking for residents of the residential component at 5-7 the Esplanade. Previously approved were 6 levels of underground parking for the residents of the "L-Tower" residential condominium at 1 Front Street East (now 8 The Esplanade). A total of 523 parking spaces will be provided on site with 150 of those for use by the proposed development and 373 by the adjacent building at 8 The Esplanade. The parking area would be accessed from The Esplanade, at the east end of the site abutting an existing driveway serving 2 Church Street, which is a Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) garage.

Lobbied applications are compared only with unlobbied applications of the same type, in the same ward, submitted in the same year and of the same size band (units or floor area from the description; sub-type for Committee of Adjustment files). Unlobbied applications are weighted to match the lobbied group. Raw lobbied versus unlobbied averages are not reported.

Submission to the first decision status seen in our daily loads (measured from launch). Approval and refusal rates are among applications with a recorded decision.
Large and complex applications attract both lobbying and longer reviews, and matching cannot remove every difference between applications, so a difference does not show that lobbying changed how an application was reviewed.
Lobbyists choose whom to contact, so a difference does not show a change of mind.
