“No amount of massing refinements and architectural design can cure the fundamental flaw with respect to the 39-storey height of the Proposed Development, which does not conform to the City’s OP, the Downtown Plan, and the SASP 211*. Although there is a broad provincial policy which is supportive of intensification, this does not confer an unfettered right to height.”
~ Jean-Pierre Blais, Vice Chair of the Ontario Land Tribunal
