Plans Submitted for Chipperfield-Designed Tower in Toronto

A new 31-story, primarily residential tower designed by acclaimed British architect Sir David Chipperfield has been proposed for Toronto, Canada’s Rosedale neighborhood by Helberg Properties, Urban Toronto reports. The site spans 38, 40 and 50 Park Road, sites that are planned to be redeveloped into the new building containing 289 rental units and new non-residential space. Bousfields has submitted Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment applications to the City of Toronto on behalf of the developer that detail the new development as rising to 107.9 m at the south end of the site and reusing the shorter heritage office building at the north end. The building is set to be served by three elevators, providing a ratio of one elevator per 96 units, indicating adequate response times.
