No -- I had heard of another tower being planned next to Jack Burger. I was wondering if it was related to the first two towers.

Not related. See here for a (so far short) thread on this project:

Saw what looked like rebar being offloaded on my walk to work this morning.

How many floors is this next tower expected to be? The building permit info had 24 but I see other posts indicating 22?
Reply
The permit info that you provided at #270 said 24 storeys.

According to this article, (if you check out the map and click on each development) Young condo is going to be 26 storeys! https://www.therecord.com/news-story/944...ur-cities/

I find there's sometimes differences in how it's described, like total floors vs floors in the tower

The trees near King St were being cut down this afternoon as well.

Is the laneway beside the Multicultural Centre remaining, or does the bulding footprint cover that?
Reply
Only if the developer chooses to have a laneway there, and I suspect it will not be the case. I don't know how much setback the new or existing buildings will have, though.
Reply
As originally proposed there was supposed to be a pedestrian passageway or arcade from King St into the courtyard, no?
Reply
Many changes since the original proposals …
