Atos also spoke to his concerns over the lack of existing traffic infrastructure and said, he doesn’t believe the current roadways at the Park and Victoria intersection can sustain the massive influx of new residents the tower would bring.
Interestingly, this is my only concern about it (otherwise I’m all for urban densification). I used to live right on that corner and those 2? 3? blocks west of Park on Victoria are a nightmare as it is; there simply isn’t any room to widen Victoria to 4 lines (like it is every where else) w/o removing everyone’s front lawns (which aren’t huge to begin with). Its a horrible bottleneck and I go out of my way to avoid that stretch. Its like the people of Victoria St. S between Park and Westmount won some monumental legal battle with the city back in the day and city just gave up; reminds me of how the Allen expressway just ends at Eglinton in Toronto for the same reason - homeowners fought the city and won.
When the condos at 100 were being built Victoria turned into a nightmare again. In this stretch I can’t conceive of how that doesn’t make the whole block impassible.
Park will be fine. :/
