A planned rental tower on the cusp of approval by Toronto City Council has fired up local residents in the affluent Avenue and St. Clair area, characterizing the planned building as a "monstrosity" and "giant monolith" that threatens the safety of the area.The proposal from developer Fitzrovia and Hariri Pontarini Architects at 135 St. Clair Ave. W. would see the current government office building at the southeast corner of Avenue Rd. and St. Clair razed to make way for a 49-storey rental tower with 576 new apartments, retail, public art, and an early childhood education centre.But despite the concessions made in height and other departments introduced since the plan was first proposed in 2024, residents of the surrounding area — one of the most affluent in Toronto — have taken up all of the familiar talking points about how large-scale developments would unacceptably impact their day-to-day lives.Currently recommended for approval by City planners, t...
