The City of Toronto has scheduled a community consultation meeting regarding a proposal for a 12-storey mixed-use residential building just east of Gerrard Square.

The proposal will see the demolition of the small plaza at 1012-1018 Gerrard St. E., northwest corner of Mallory Avenue and Gerrard Street East, and replace it with the 93-unit building.

Along with the 93 residential units, the building will include 320 square metres of mixed use space at street level.

Total gross floor area of the proposals is 7,108 square metres. The proposed building will include nine vehicular parking spaces and 124 underground bicycle parking spaces.

The in-person community consultation meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, March 19, at 6:30 p.m. at the Matty Eckler Community Centre, 953 Gerrard St. E.

Those attending the meeting will have the opportunity to view information panels, provide comments, ask questions and speak with the project team.
