Talking point: Waterfront Toronto has been evaluating the plan since the two companies came to an agreement on some sticking points in October 2019. In February, Waterfront indicated support for the majority of the plan, identifying some 16 items it opposed. Keerthana Rang, a spokesperson for Sidewalk Labs, told The Logic that the Alphabet subsidiary was in agreement with the board’s decision to delay the deadline: “We look forward to continuing discussions with Waterfront Toronto on the Quayside project.”
