The 75 storey condominium building proposed by Kingsett would retain the facades of the heritage buildings on Yonge Street. A mix of studio, one, two and three bedroom units is planned, with a small amount of replacement rental units. There would be no vehicle parking, with only bicycle parking available. A public courtyard would be provided by the building entrance on Irwin.
An Official Plan Amendment and Rezoning Application was submitted to the City in January 2023.
There will be a community consultation meeting on a proposed development at 646 to 664 Yonge Street and 2 to 4 Irwin Avenue on Thursday March 16, 2023 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.

Ontario Government Buildings

MacDonald Block Reconstruction Project, 80 Grosvenor Street, 900 Bay Street, 77 Wellesley Street West
The Ontario government office buildings at south west corner of Wellesley Street and Bay Street (Hearst/Mowat, Hepburn and Ferguson Towers) started a major renovation in 2019. This is the first major renovation in almost 50 years, which will maintain heritage elements, improve accessibility, and modernize operations to LEED Silver standards. Work is estimated to be complete sometime in 2023 or 2024.

Whitney Block Rehabilitation, 99 Wellesley Street West
In 2018, revitalization started on this Ontario government office building. The tower portion has been unoccupied for over 50 years due to obsolete air conditioning and elevator systems. Window replacement, façade repairs and updating of the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system was completed in 2022.

880 Bay Street
The original 7 storey government office building was demolished in 2017 and the property is being used as a staging area for the MacDonald Block renovations. Rezoning and a site plan were approved in 2011 for a 39 storey government office building that is expected to start construction in 2024 (when the MacDonald Block renovations are finished) and be completed in 2026.
Infrastructure Ontario is currently reviewing plans for the site for feasibility of the approved building.
