About 210 Bloor Edifici Residencial Plurifamiliar

El 210 Bloor és un edifici d'ús mixt de 29 plantes que alberga 42 unitats residencials, 126m2 d'espai comercial i 3 nivells d'aparcament soterrani. La promoció resultarà en una superfície construïda bruta de 15.589m2 amb una densitat global de 20 vegades la superfície de la parcel·la. El disseny presenta un patró geomètric triangular tessel·lat de vidre reflectant a les façanes est i oest, que estan dissenyades fins a la línia de propietat. L'acabat reflectant dels panells hexagonals crea un llenç de llum i formes reflectides.

Inspiration
Along with the challenge of intensifying these lots is the growing demand for boutique residential condominiums. These new buildings are typically designed with one or two units per floor, assuring a high level of privacy and autonomy, similar to a house. This emerging urban typology has been taken up in North American cities, including New York and Vancouver, where the various monikers for these buildings include the super-skinny and pencil tower.
Project Duration
The project started in 2023 in Toronto, Canada and is expected to complete construction in 2030
