What a pre-construction design-build project looks like here
Roncesvalles Village runs along Roncesvalles Avenue and is Toronto's largest Polish commercial district — the cultural-heritage character is recognised in Toronto's Cultural Heritage Resource Inventory.
Most Roncesvalles residential stock is detached + semi-detached built 1908-1925 on lots 6-7.5m wide × 35-40m deep — wider frontage than Trinity-Bellwoods or Riverdale allows side-passage extensions that aren't feasible in those areas.
High Park's eastern edge falls under the Ravine and Natural Feature Protection By-law — properties along Ellis Avenue + Westminster Avenue facing the park are subject to ravine-setback constraints on rear-extension scope.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
