Two of the four largest permits, valued at $60 million or more each, were for separate apartment buildings on St. Clair Ave. W.
Here are the top four permits, listed in order of recorded value.
$68,000,000 – 2306 St. Clair Ave. W.
Stockyards District Residences will be a 10-storey mixed-use condominium building developed by Marlin Spring Developments and designed by Graziani + Corazza Architects.

The address of 101 St. Clair Ave. W. matches an already existing condo at that site.
However, Urban Toronto reports that Slate Asset Management had submitted a Zoning By-Law Amendment application in 2021 for a 49-storey tower at 1 St. Clair Ave. W. at the southwest corner of Yonge St.
The planned tower would be built on a 12-storey base, with a two level underground garage and have a total Gross Floor Area of 34,998 sq. m. Buildings at 11 and 13 St. Clair Ave. are to be demolished to expand the 12-storey Padulo Building, built in 1968.

The permit calls for “interior alterations” at the Scarborough Health Network – General Site.
