A development over 4 years in the making is about to make its debut.

In 2007 the owners at 2175 Lakeshore Boulevard West submitted a proposal to the city of Toronto to build a new condominium tower. After careful planning and a new developer taking the reigns, ‘Jade Waterfront Condos’ is almost ready to launch.

Phantom Developments purchased the site last month and plans to build a 34 storey residential tower with a park and three storey commercial tower to the north.  A two storey podium will connect the commercial tower to the residential tower to the south.

The residential tower designed by Quadrangle Architects will feature 289 one and two bedroom suites.  Interestingly, there is no studio or 3 bedroom floor plans expected to be released.    Thomas Pearce Interiors has been hired to design the interiors.

The area is called Humber Bay and has been very popular for new condo developments over the last five to ten years. Camrost-Felcorp (Sunset Condos at Mystic Point and iLoft at Mystic Pointe), Empire Condominiums (Eau De Solei), as well as Monarch’s Developments (Nautilus at Waterview, Waterscapes The Condominium and Lago Condos) have attracted developers and buyers to this location because of the close proximity to the downtown core and the numerous amenities offered.

The site is the location of the former Shore Breeze Motel.
