Origin
Summary
This application proposes to permit a six-storey addition with an overall height of approximately 33 metres and a gross floor area of approximately 3,767 square metres of new institutional floor area at the southeast portion of the existing Woodsworth College institutional complex, resulting in an overall gross floor area of 6,957 square metres across the site at 117-119 St. George Street.
The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020), conforms with the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019) and conforms with the Official Plan.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law. The application proposes a compact built form addition on a site that is appropriate for further intensification, within a built-up area, that would take advantage of existing infrastructure, conserve heritage resources, provide new institutional uses, and contribute to the vitality of the campus and surrounding area.
