Lying on axis with Beverley Street and at the head of Widmer Street, along the north side of Richmond, the building will be seen as an urban icon in relation to other significant landmarks. The design is in response to this urban condition. Floating cubic volumes shift outward, positioned to respond to each of these urban axes. These white volumes are accentuated by a dramatic red cut that jogs around each building face, creating a dynamic sculptural form. Professionally designed inviting landscape area(s) Property Management office on site Suites are designed with spacious balconies* and/or terraces* offering premium outdoor entertaining areas The completed project will create a unique living environment in downtown Toronto - living spaces that project out over the City providing spectacular views. Coupled with high-end retail and amenities at occupants’ fingertips. These features create a highly cultured, sophisticated urban living experience. The terrace and the roofs of most cubic volumes are planted with themed gardens, each with unique colours and attributes. The cumulative impact is to create a vertical landscape, an abstracted reference to the natural form of a mountain. This form extends from a ten storey podium that defines the space of Richmond Street West and animates the street with its own contribution of high end retail and commercial space at the pedestrian level. The main amenity space is situated on the tenth floor, overlooking a grand terrace, with roof gardens, BBQs, hot tub, tanning decks and an outdoor fireplace. This space offers panoramic views to the City and the lake.
