April 18th Meeting Re: 300 Bloor St. West

Here's the scoop from an email:

"Dear Residents,
I'm writing to invite you to join me and City Planning staff to hear about plans for a 38-storey mixed use building at 300 Bloor St W, the site of the Bloor Street United Church (Bloor and Huron). The proposal includes a point tower with an office at the base, with the church remaining on the site.
Date: Wednesday, April 18
Time: 7:00pm to 8:30pm
Location: Royal St George's College, Ketchum Hall, 120 Howland Ave
Please contact Rebecca of my office at 416-392-4044 or Councillor_Vaughan@toronto.ca with any questions. A meeting about another project, west of the Annex, will be held in the same room earlier in the evening, so they may be wrapping up when you arrive.
I hope to see you there.
Sincerely,
Adam
Please note that due to current construction at Royal St George's College, there is no parking on the site, and the school encourages visitors to park behind Walmer Road Baptist Church around the corner, or at the Green "P" parking lot directly south of Howland Ave on Bloor Street.
Councillor Adam Vaughan
Ward 20, Trinity-Spadina"

Development Meeting Re: Former McDonald's Site

This was in Councillor Adam Vaughan's latest newsletter:
"200 Bloor Street Development Review Meeting
You may recall this address as the “McDonald’s” site. This application proposes to replace four small commercial buildings at 192, 192A, 194 and 200 Bloor Street West with a mixed use development including a 28-storey residential point tower on a 2-storey
podium.
City of Toronto Planning staff are hosting a statutory public meeting for this project.
Date: Monday, June 22, 2009
Time: 7 pm
Location: Walmer Road Baptist Church, 188 Lowther Ave
For more information, please call the Ward 20 office at 416-392-4044.
This development also brings with it the opportunity to create a pedestrian lane, similar
to those found in Yorkville, east of Avenue Road, complete with public art and retail at
grade."

Oooh! A pedestrian lane. Sounds intriguing.

Cheers,

Vanessa
