Looks like the United Church is losing a piece of its pie.  

Whitecastle Investments has bought the property of the Deer Park United Church at St. Clair Avenue West and Avenue Road for $4 million and intend to build a 32-storey residential tower of 1-3 bedroom units while adapting the church and into its plans.  There will also be 5 three-storey townhouses bringing the total amount of units to 220 with 5 levels of underground parking.  Below are the artist renderings by Diamond + Schmitt.

There are a lot of high end homes in that neighbourhood!  Wonder how the owners are feeling about this?
