An application to construct a four-storey building at 416 Eglinton Ave. W will be heard Wednesday March 20, 2013 at 10 a.m. at North York Council 5100 Yonge Street. It is expected to be a lively meeting. Sources say the plan involves adding floors to the present structure, which was built as a grocery store in 1936 at the same time as the Eglinton Theatre. 416 Eglinton sits at the T junction of Elmsthorpe Ave and Eglinton. There is a four storey residential building which also houses a Bank of Montreal branch on the southwest corner of that intersection at present. Although a variance from the present city plan will be required, it may be tempting for councillors to support the request. There is much talk now of “building up” Eglinton Ave. in keeping with the arrival of an LRT. Bid to build 4-storey complex at 416 Eglinton W
