As we pass 500 signatures, we continue to debunk misinformation regarding the 18-storey skyscraper proposed at 1631 Queen, including false statements regarding the height of existing buildings.  Is this an attempt to set a precedent on height?

“If the whole site (on Eastern Avenue and Queen Street East) were restricted to 6-storeys, that would be shorter than the 8-storey building already on Eastern” – Councillor Bradford

What 8-storey building? 1080 Eastern (circled in red)? This building is 6-stories and not even part of the proposal! Have they even walked down Eastern before?

See slide 9 of the Community Mtg 2 presentation or hunt for the mysterious 8-story building yourself!
