The site immediately south of the Charleson, formerly 1300-1320 Richards.

Can't find a link to the project's website itself, but the planning docs are here, and, as per the design rationale, it'll be a 45 storey condo, with 215.5k sq ft. Developer is Wall Financial, with Dialog Architects.

Renders cut from the planning docs:

498 Drake (formerly known as 1300-1320 Richards) is immediately to the NORTH of the Charleson. Here is a recent pic of the construction (with white luffing crane) as it approaches grade.

The area seems to be pretty built up already, great density!
