TORONTO | Residences of 488 University Avenue | 207 M | 55 FLOORS
Address: 480 University Avenue
Developer: Amexon Architect: Core Architects Formerly known as "The Icon" - now known as "The Residences of U Avenue". http://www.candidbling.com/UAvenue.jpg http://www.candidbling.com/UAvenue2.jpg http://www.candidbling.com/UAvenue3.jpg |
I think the height of this one is a little under 700 ft.
|
Nice looking building, but who really wants to live right on University Avenue?
|
I could think of worse places... :runaway:
|
Looks like the bottom third are offices (even can see the ceilings in the renderings)
|
:previous: The bottom third is office and already exists. They'll renovate it and then add ~35 floors of residential on top of it.

The Ritz-Carlton is down the street and I believe those started at $1.5 million. |

The direct subway access is also awesome (especially during the winter or if you're like me and are paranoid of your hair getting messed up on windy days) To be honest, I was surprised there hasnt been more residential development here. I think I'd go so far to say that I'd prefer it to Bay Street. |
University Avenue is a very grand street...
Subway access is a plus. |
Very few roadways in the country can compare. However I would preferably want to live on Yonge instead of University.
Edit: @Koops Nice updated diagram, very realistic. : ) |
I heard a commercial for this on the radio the other day that advertised it as being the "most prestigious address in Canada." I don't want to open up a whole city-vs-city BS debate, and would ask a MOD to delete this if it descends into that nonsense, but I am curious about the claim. Is University Ave really that highly thought of in Toronto?

There is movement on the site. A crane is being erected a top of the current building.

What about the equally tall building across the street, which name escapes me; any movement on it?

I haven't heard anything about it lately... |
^Thanks, koops. Together they would make a nice sort of gateway on University.
