Andrew Street. The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and conforms with A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020),the Toronto Official Plan, and the Downtown Plan. The proposal presents an appropriate built form and contribution to the public realm that is compatible with the surrounding context. It has been revised, since its initial submission, to mitigate the impact on the public realm by reducing its proposed height and improving its transition to the neighbouring properties. The proposed retail space has also been redesigned to provide a better physical fit within the commercial context of Kensington Market. This report reviews and recommends approval of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment
