Menkes has just launched the second tower of their latest condo project for North York Centre, adding to a collection that has done much to define the skyline there.
The two 42-storey towers, which will house a total of 901 units, were designed by
Rafael and Bigausakas, will join other Menkes residential projects in the immediate area -- Pinnacle, Royal Pinnacle, Ultima and Broadway � and will, like them, offer direct indoor access to the North York Centre subway station.
"Menkes has played a pioneering role in the creation of the North York City Centre community," says Mimi Ng, vice president of marketing. "We have been actively building in this area along Yonge Street since the early 1980s, and over the past 30 years we have built over 2 million square feet of retail and commercial space and over 5,000 condominium residences in this node." The commercial space they've built there includes the
Procter and Gamble building, the
Transamerica tower, and the Empress Walk shopping centre. "We remain very committed to the ongoing growth and evolution of this community."
The model suites for the project, which is called Gibson Square for the
Gibson House Museum next door, were designed by
Munge Leung.
