ICE 2 Launching This Month
The second tower of ICE Condominiums by Lanterra Developments and Cadillac Fairview is about to be launched. Sales at tower 1 started back in July 2008, and that tower is well over 80% sold out.
The development is part of the York Centre community which is located at York and Bremner. Lanterra and Cadillac Fairview are the developers behind the highly successful Residences of Maple Leaf Square which will be right across the street from ICE. Other Lanterra projects include: WaterParkCity, 22 Wellesley, One Bedford, Murano and Burano, and 18 Yonge street.
Wondering what all the buzz is about for this project? To begin, it is going to be big. Really BIG! The second tower is to be a 65-storey super-tower which would put it in the ultra-exclusive height category that currently only Aura, Trump Tower, Shangri-La, and the Ritz Carlton occupy after the recent death of 1 Bloor.
Also, it is to have a direct underground connection to the PATH system via Maple Leaf Square, the ACC and Union Station. Perks will include being able to leave your coat in your condo as you walk indoors to the 40,000 square foot Longo’s grocery store in the base of Maple Leaf Square, or catch a game or concert at the ACC.
Peter Clewes of architectsAlliance (One of Canada’s resident Starchitects) designed the building and judging by the renderings it will certainly stand out and has real potential to be that landmark building that investors and condo buyers are always looking to be a part of.
It goes without saying that suites will feature stone counters, hardwood floors, stainless steel European appliances, cutting edge design and finishes, and 9′ ceilings. These are not entry level, low-end condos. Prices are going to most likely be in the $600-$650 per square foot range at the launch phase.
Prices and floor plans for the upcoming VIP broker’s sales event should be released soon. If you are interested in buying a suite at ICE 2 prior to the public launch, please contact me.
