Site of proposed 26-storey tower at NE Corner of Blair and Montreal Roads
A 26-storey residential and mixed use development has been proposed for the northeast corner of Blair and Montreal Roads. Current zoning at 1649 Montreal Road allows for a 9-storey building. The developer has therefore submitted a rezoning application to the City in order to obtain permission for the increased height. Scroll down for more information as it becomes available.
