As the city filed it
Logan Avenue between Gerrard Street East and First Avenue has bike lanes on both sides of the street. Since the developer requires an extension of the construction staging area, including an extension of the closure of the bike lanes abutting the site, this matter requires final approval by City Council. 485 Logan Developments Inc. has taken over (from DC&F Corporation) the construction of a four-storey residential building at 485 Logan Avenue.

The site is located on the east side of Logan Avenue, between Gerrard Street East and First Avenue. City Council, at its meeting on July 28 and 29, 2020, approved the subject construction staging area on Logan Avenue, from July 17, 2020 to April 30, 2021. Subsequently, on July 14, 15 and 16, 2021, City Council approved an extension of the duration of the closure until August 31, 2021. The developer is now requesting an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on Logan Avenue in order to complete the portion of the construction that cannot be accommodated on site. Based on information provided by the developer, the site has experienced a number of construction delays due to COVID-19, availability of materials, design issues, and a change of builder. Transportation Services is requesting authorization to extend the duration of the construction staging area on Logan Avenue for an additional six months, from March 10, 2022 to August 31, 2022, in order to complete the construction of the development.
