As the city filed it
This development is currently under construction and consists of seven mixed-use buildings and underground parking. The development is being referred to as 'The Well' by the consortium of developers who are collectively involved in the project. The project includes residential, office and retail components and all of the buildings on the site are proposed to include at least two of the three proposed uses. All buildings would include a base building and a taller building element with a retail component within the first two floors.

The first underground level would also include a lower concourse level which would include retail uses as well as loading facilities. All of the buildings fronting on Front Street West would include an office component within the base building. All of the proposed buildings, except for the proposed office tower at the corner of Front Street and Spadina Ave. would include a residential component located in the taller portion of the buildings. This development is bounded by Spadina Avenue to the east, Draper Street to the west, Front Street West to the south and Wellington Street West to the north. As part of this development, various on-street parking and traffic amendments have been proposed on Front Street West and Wellington Street West in particular. Specifically, changes to the lane configuration at the Spadina Avenue/Front Street West intersection; a new traffic control signal at the main site access driveway on Front Street West (which will be located approximately 175 metres east of the existing signal at Portland Street and Front Street West); a new mid-block traffic control signal on Wellington Street (which will be located approximately 210 metres west of Spadina Avenue); and a series of parking lay-by areas on Wellington Street and Front Street West, which are intended to be used for parking and/or pick-up/drop-off purposes. All on-street parking and traffic amendments require by-law approval by Toronto and East York Community Council. Of note, Transportation Services staff was unable to conduct a detailed on-street parking review on Front Street West given the on-going construction activity in this area. Therefore these on-street parking amendments will be addressed by a separate motion to be tabled at a later date.
