Paired Towers would replace the commercial low business compared to Mount Pleasant Station
In the 245 Eglinton Avenue East directly opposite the Mount Pleasant station input of the upcoming Eginton line 5. Designed by Superkül for Crestview Investment Corporation, the two-tower use, would be an Eglinton line 5 designed by Superkül in Midtown Toronto.

The area is located on the southeastern corner of the Eglinton Avenue East and Mount Pleasant Road and also has a certain facade along the Taunton Road to the east. The location is currently inhabited by a four-story commercial and office building and is located in the secondary plan of Yonge-Eginton, where the high-rise is concentrated along the transit corridors. At the same time, low houses in the south and east define areas.
The existing building has long served as a trading center with retail stores on the ground floor and office space in the upper store, which are part of the street landscape from the middle of the century. Tenants such as the Granite Brewery have contributed to the local character of the website. Although the facade, which is artificially lined by the structure, is not familiar with a familiar presence along Eginton.

On behalf of the developer, Colliers Strategy & Consulting submitted an official plan and an application for a zone division for changing the zoning. The proposal stipulates that towers rise at the western and eastern ends of a common podium by 199.3 m and 214.3 m. The towers sat on a 2- to 3-story base building with a 542 m² pops (privately owned in possession of publicly accessible space), which anchored the northwest corner.

The development would have a rough floor area (GFA) of 87,438 m², which results in a floor surface index of 18.1 -times cover of the 4,816 m² plot. Fifteen percent of the units with a bedroom are designed in such a way that they can be converted through death walls in units with two bedrooms. In the class, Townhouse Units would concentrate the Taunton Road on the retail on Mount Pleasant and Eglinton. The proposal comprises 84,588 m² GFA and 2,850 m² retail -GFA.

The design comprises 3,727 m² indoor and 1,386 m² outdoor. Interior is planned for floors two and four of both towers and on the third floor along the Mount Pleasant. A large outdoor terrace would be on the second floor between the towers and on the third floor there would be also outdoors outdoors.
For the 1,278 residential units, twelve elevators (six per tower) are proposed, which leads to a ratio of approximately one elevator per 107 units, although elevators in the shorter tower are likely to have less long waiting times. Below the grade would offer a three-story underground garage 86 living, 27 single trading and 14 visitor parking spaces. Bicycle parking spaces would include 1,157 long -term residential buildings, 262 short -term visitors, 16 non -resident and 10 public places.

The location is located directly opposite the entrances to the upcoming Mount Pleasant station and puts it in the most important transit station, where the province promotes high densities. A station in the west or 750 m west (about 10 minutes on foot) is the Eglinton station on Yonge Line 1. In addition to a transit higher order, several TTC surface routes serve as well as increased bicycle tracks along the Eglinton Avenue East and nearby connections to Kay Gardner Beltline Trail via the Broadway Avenue.
