Approved by the Planning Committee.

One section of Scott Street near Westboro station has attracted one development application after another in recent years, and the planning committee approved yet another on Thursday for the parcel between Winona and Churchill avenues.

When the building proposed for 2070 Scott St. in Westboro went to the city's urban design panel for review, panellists questioned its height.

Leiper said he was glad to see the 25-storey building proposed for the site has been made less "wide and blunt" than originally planned, and welcomed the $900,000 the project will generate for affordable housing and parks in his ward.

Nevertheless, he was the only committee member to vote against the rezoning, urging the city to push for even better design.
