This project has peaked my interest.

Thanks @Daveography -- I have been waiting for this one. Beautifully refined detail -- exceptional design. I like it a lot!

 

[archited]

And I like the simple name -- "CX" -- over the entry canopy -- Roman numeral equivalent for 110.

RAW Design has a write-up about the project on their site: https://www.rawdesign.ca/projects/2017/7/12/cx-lofts-and-townhouses

I guess they're collaborating with Marshall Tittemore?

 

[Daveography]

@Marcanadian I'm guessing MTa is probably the local architect of record, with RAW doing the design work. But it's interesting because that's three projects they've collaborated on now (Mezzo and Windsor Terrace being the other two).

 

[Marcanadian]

Yeah that would make sense with MTa's name on the application. Though the renderings on RAW's website appear to be slightly outdated. There are some differences in the wood framing and balcony expression.

Unfortunately it sounds like sales were very poor on this one, and it has gone completely back to the drawing board.

 

[crisp]

I spoke to the salesperson in City Centre before it closed down. He said market conditions and steel prices due to US tariffs (was going to be a steel structure) have made the team make an executive decision to completely change plans. They are now designing a mid to highrise concrete structure all rentals.

 

[Daveography]

@crisp Interesting info, thanks. Yeah I think the site is already zoned RA9, which is a new, fairly permissive high-rise zone. Could really work out to their advantage if they can still work within that zoning.

 

[Daveography]

Well they're not wasting time.
