When that student wants property in the most prime space in the region probably not. Toronto already allows tons of new units(like this project) what more are you expecting from the city?
- kael12345 9y agohmmmm
- wungsten 9y agoThe problem is that U of T spans some of the best real estate in the city, and obviously students want to live near there.
- rubatuga 9y agoexactly
- sanswork 9y agoSo the uni should relocate or build more extensive student housing? Not sure how that is a problem for the city itself. Not everyone gets to live in prime areas.
- wbl 9y agoIf Toronto was building everywhere they would.
- sanswork 9y agoToronto is building everywhere around there. That's why every conversation about development in Toronto goes back and forth between 'too many condos!' and 'too expensive housing'.
- robotresearcher 9y agoUT is already present in the suburbs.
- otoburb 9y agoThe GP didn't specify U of T St. George campus specifically, but if we're assuming they were, students have a wide variety of residence options available to them at great rates[1] provided by the university. In cases where students don't wish to remain in the residences, they can move out and share apartments or condo units. Also, there aren't any U of T buildings[2] close to the Quayside cordon[3], hence I find it hard to believe that this particular project (or any) will raise rents all that much for students attending U of T on the St. George campus.
