People are moving into The Modern this week, fleshing out the years-long process of overhauling Richmond Street East.
The Modern, a 17-storey, 343-unit tower by
Empire that was aimed at first-time buyers with prices ranging between about $350,000 and $450,000, is the newest addition to a neighbourhood with a lot in the works, including a possible 18-storey tower by Brad Lamb at 231 Richmond East.
"It's really contributing to the revitalization of Richmond east of Yonge," says Empire vice president Paul Golini. There is also small-scale retail on the ground floor.
The Modern is at
306 Richmond East, at Sherbourne.
