A bold new condominium tower could soon transform a quiet block just northwest of Davisville subway station in midtown Toronto .

Development firm Resident is seeking approval to build the new 247-unit complex on a site currently occupied by a low-rise dentist office and a four-storey office building, both of which would be levelled to make way for the ambitious new plan.The current blueprint is an evolution from a smaller-scale project initially submitted in February 2021 calling for a 14-storey residential building at 25 Imperial.

The tower's base features playful references to the apartment towers of the mid-20th century. Its exterior expression bears some resemblance to the work of Estonian-born Canadian architect Uno Prii, whose space-age buildings defined by swooping, sculptural curves were constructed across Toronto during the apartment boom of the '60s.

View facing southeast over the Imperial Street bridge spanning the Line 1 subway trench, where passing commuters will catch a glimpse of the new tower.
