What is being built at 661 Danforth Rd?

Has the application at 661 Danforth Rd been approved?
Not yet. The file is recorded by the City as “OMB Approved”. Before the Ontario Land Tribunal. Jurisdiction has moved from the City to the Tribunal. The Tribunal may substitute its own decision, and the file commonly settles with revised plans rather than proceeding to a full hearing.
How do I comment on a development application in Toronto?
Written submissions go to the assigned City planner and to your Ward Councillor, and they carry the most weight while a file is under review, before the staff recommendation report is finalised. The statutory notice, the community consultation meeting date and any submission deadline are not fields in the open dataset this page reads, so they have to come from the City's own record or the notice posted on the site.

What this page does not carry
Unit counts are not a field in the City’s Development Applications dataset; where the figure exists it is in the planning rationale filed with the application. Committee of Adjustment matters, which are minor variance (s. 45) and consent (s. 53), are a separate City stream and are not in this dataset at all. Statuses are read from a published extract rather than a live feed, so confirm the current position against the City’s own record before relying on it.
