London on the Esplanade
Pub-laden area reminds many of U.K.’s capital city
Only a few great suites remain! Take advantage of a broker’s open house this weekend only - make an appointment with us to go to the sales centre. Prices still start as low as the $180s up to the $550s with layouts from one-bedroom up to two-bedrooms-plus-den. With occupancy scheduled for this October, the building is almost complete!
People looking for a new London home better move fast - London on the Esplanade is almost sold out.
“I’ve done this for over 20 years,” says Phyllis Shapiro, the project’s sales manager. “I always tell people to buy location. There is so much around here that you literally don’t need your car.”
The two buildings and podium will sit right behind the Hummingbird Centre, south of Front Street and east of Yonge.
“A lot of people have commented over the years the area reminded them, especially with all the pubs, of London,” Shapiro says. “People who live in this area, or who wanted to live in this area didn’t have a lot of options before.”
Shapiro is moving in herself, something she has never done with any project she’s worked on in the past two decades. She says the first incentive was the location, but second was the layout.
“The architect did a very good job with his floorplan. He’s really utilized his space well,” she says.
Burka Varacalli Architects, who were involved with projects such as the Bayview Mansions, the St. James Cathedral and 801 Bay St., have designed 12 different “London flat” suites and nine different lofts.
Floor-to-ceiling windows, pre-finished engineered wood floors and mirrored sliding doors in all bedroom closets are among some of the suite features.
“Club London” will have spa rooms, a fitness centre, a London-styled pub and cinema among other amenities.
As for the external look of the building, Shapiro says, “The large tower will suit the financial district and incorporate a brick inlay to keep with the area. People really like that feel.”
Shapiro says another sales representative has bought on this project as well.
“I live up north so this will be a big change for me but I really like this block,” she says. “Other people are moving from the north. They want to get back into the night life — their kids have grown up.”
