Actually the biggest investment predicted for 2016 is $24.5M for 350 residential units by Fengate Properties. They're the people developing the
Village on Dieppe Blvd.
If you look at the above map of the development (post #352), there is an entire block of land immediately to the west of the Co-op development which will be residential. If you look carefully at the map, there is almost no surface parking on this block, which means to me that we're talking about
underground parking, and there do appear to be a couple of driveways in that block on the map which disappear (presumably underground). With underground parking, perhaps we're talking about a couple of substantial towers going in here. Maybe something in the 10 storey range.
Of course this is all purely conjecture, and this property is close to the flightpath of the main 06/24 runway at the GMIA, so height may not be feasible. Still, it's nice to imagine the possibilities. 350 residential units is a lot.
