After more than 37 years of feeding the community, the Dundas Street Grille may soon be gone.

The Dundas Street Grille, a popular restaurant known for its breakfasts, has been a mainstay of the neighbourhood around Kipling subway station since the mid-1980s.

The family-run eatery has been an Etobicoke landmark for generations.

Now there are plans to turn it into a 40-storey mixed use condo.

Documents filed by a developer show an Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application to permit the redevelopment of the lands with a 40 storey high-rise mixed-use residential building, comprised of 475 residential units, at-grade commercial space and proposed parkland dedication area.

A lone single-family bungalow directly to the north at 28 Jopling Street South would also be demolished to make way for the new tower. A 340 square-metre park, buffering the enormous tower, is also proposed.

Designed by architects IBI Group for developer main+main, the new tower would soar almost 131 metres above Dundas Street West.

The building will feature a sloped roof terminating with a dramatic knife-edge point.

The condo will create 380 square metres of retail space on Dundas at the base of the development.

Parking is tight in the area and 177 parking spots are proposed for underground.

The matter is under consideration by Etobicoke York Community Council.
