After nearly a decade-long saga, world renowned Canadian architect Frank Gehry’s major development project in downtown Toronto is at last about to begin sales, with the final iteration considerably more simplified than the original design.
“The design remains elegant and nicely put together and it’s not extreme,” Greenberg said. “Gehry himself commented that the original project was not appropriate for Toronto.” Mitchell Cohen, the chief operating officer of Westdale Properties, said he is happy with the result and that the simplification of the project was a natural evolution for the towers and how the buildings balance out the city skyline.
At the heart of the Entertainment district, the towers will be located on either side of Duncan Street, addressed to 266 and 276 King St. W., one standing 73 storeys tall and the other at 84 storeys, with more than 2,000 condo units in total. “This is a homecoming masterpiece by Frank Gehry,” Cohen said about the architect who was born and raised in Toronto.
