snips from the news bit:

Total of 1,484 residential homes will be built on a former commuter parking lot

The development will include 444 condos and a mix of one- to three-bedroom rental homes that will be available to residents of various income levels.

Green said the four-block community that will be created will include a childcare centre, community space, retail space and public park.

In a news release on Tuesday, the city said crews have already begun to remove parking infrastructure to prepare the site for development. Construction is set to begin in the spring, with occupancy expected in early 2029.

Since they're rental units by your standards they can never be affordable?
