A 37-storey rental tower proposed at 20 Prince Arthur Avenue would introduce a dramatic height increase to this block steps from St George station in Toronto’s Annex neighbourhood, while townhomes would also be added.
Designed by Hariri Pontarini Architects for Khybers Ventures Ltd, with Globizen Group as development manager, the infill proposal would rise between Avenue Road and Bedford Road beside a retained 22-storey apartment building by Estonian-born Canadian architect Uno Prii. Landscaping is being handled by CCxA.
Located on the north side of Prince Arthur Avenue, the site contains a 22-storey rental apartment building surrounded by surface parking and landscaped open space. The proposed infill would occupy areas west and east of the existing building. The Annex property sits north of the Bloor Street West corridor, with the University of Toronto to the southwest and Yorkville to the east.
