What started off as a contentious development resulting from its overbearing design could get approval from Toronto’s Planning Department on January 30th.
Revised from its original design, a joint venture by developers Freed Developments and Minto Group is planned for Front and Bathursts Streets, right beside Tridel’s Rêve. The condominium project will boast a 19-storey building on Bathurst attached to a 15-storey building at Niagara Street. The modern design has a facade broken up by significant cutaways which reveal a second glass skin behind the buidling’s varied precast grid armature.… Read the rest

Earlier this year I sold a condo in the Maple Leaf Square building on Bremner Blvd. My client purchased a south facing unit on almost the 40th floor. He asked me if I thought something else would be built just south of him. My response was, “I guarantee it!”

The project was very successful, thanks to the great architecture, design and great price points. Many of the units sold during the Agent Preview. Luckily, one of my clients jumped on the opportunity and snagged one of the penthouse units.

Streetcar Development is at it again!
This time, it’s in the form of a 12-storey, 340 unit (approximately) condominium at 349 Carlaw Avenue, with the majority of the height and density centered around the corner of Carlaw and Dundas.
The plan is to leave the 3 storey commercial/industrial building currently located at the site, but build stacked condo townhomes on the East side of the building with the ground floor of the townhomes consisting of live work spaces.
Careful thought was put in to the design of this building. Streetcar… Read the rest
