Luxury builder Pinnacle International launches phase one of its newest condo building, named SkyTower, which will rise more than 1,000 feet over Lake Ontario—quite literally taking the Toronto condo market to new heights.
The Pinnacle One Yonge development will be Canada’s tallest residential condominium tower, topping out at a record-breaking 95-storeys and 313 metres high.
“An iconic address like One Yonge demands an iconic architectural statement,” says Anson Kwok, Pinnacle’s vice president of sales and marketing. “We knew this location demanded something elegant and distinctive.
“Our approach to this phase, and the other elements of this master-planned development, was predicated on a commitment to not just merely add yet another condo to the downtown core. Instead, we recognized the unique privilege provided by this site to forever reshape the Toronto skyline.”
Sky Tower is designed by Hariri Pontarini Architects and will include more than 800 condominium suites in a variety of layouts, ranging from 520 to 2,300 square feet, with prices starting from just over $800,000. With sweeping views of the lake, suites at SkyTower will be defined by the contemporary designs created by the award-winning team at Tanner Hill and Associates.
Amenities within SkyTower will rival many of the city’s finest luxury residences, and will include a pool, yoga studio, games centre and party-space, as well as outdoor barbeques and lounge areas.
SkyTower is the second of three tall towers at Pinnacle One Yonge, and its launch follows the release of The Prestige, a 65-storey condominium tower that launched last year, is now under construction. Details for the third tower have not yet been announced.
With more than 2,200 condominium suites between the three buildings, the residential towers will anchor the master-planned 4.4 million square foot development of Pinnacle One Yonge. This master-planned community will also include 1.5 million square feet of office space, 160,000 square feet of retail, a 250-room hotel, a 50,000 square foot community centre and a 2.5-acre public park.
Pinnacle International is one of Canada’s leading builders of luxury condominium residences, hotels, and commercial developments in Vancouver, downtown Toronto, and Mississauga.
