The heritage of 53-55 Queen will also likely be an issue for some as it is on the non-designated heritage list.
The zoning of 55 Queen St S is D-1, which is fine. But it appears that they are counting on purchasing the corner property from the city -- it looks like the last fifth of the building is on the city-owned land? Now, that part is open on the ground floor, so the amount of green space is about the same as if the city did still own it (and got rid of the handful of parking spaces), so maybe this is their angle to get a deal done.
