That first rendering is among the most downright wretched ever done by a so-called professional.

I'll try to remember to bring a camera along next time I'm in the area. Two of the buildings are already at about 20 storeys.

Honestly, that first image straight up cracks me up. :haha:

Great project though. :tup:

LOL! The first render is kinda cool/funny/imaginative!... but very unrealistic :haha:

Actually, 4 towers are currently under construction... 2 of them (the ones closest to IKEA) are at about 20-25 floors now (if i can recall... and they're near top-off) and the other 2 are about 1 floor above ground...(the ones closest to McDonalds)...

Interesting project... i remember passing by them and just seeing HOW MUCH EMPTY SPACE there is to fill!!!... you could create an entire village in that lot (which is kinda what they're trying to accomplish)... looking forwards to see the full project :cheers: !

Wow, that's an EPIC development!

That's a Hong Kong sized development.

how far would this be from downtow and is the TTC going to have same type of transit for the 5,000 units

:previous: It's right on the Sheppard subway, about 15 km from downtown as the crow flies.

I said right at the beginning of the first post:

"Served by subway, 24-hour bus service, and GO Train"

I was there last week...

East tower is approximately now at 23 stories.
North-west tower is at 21 stories.
:D

Wow!!! I didnt even know about this development getting this far along, and I just live down the block.

Guys, the "rendering" at the top of the page is a screen-cap of a flash cartoon from the webpage with little moving cars and sailboats :P

Hopefully these will have much better finishings than the City Place condos... but I highly doubt that.

EllisDon continues work on Concord Park Place condos in North York, Ontario


http://dcnonl.com/article/id40263


Work continues on phase one of Concord Park Place condominiums in North York, Ont. Construction manager EllisDon Corp. has completion of the two-tower project, with retail at grade, slated for January 2012.

The towers will also include a gym, theatre, billiards room, a lounge and four levels of underground parking.

The project was designed by IBI Group Page & Steele Inc. and Quadrangle Architects Ltd.

Consultants are: Halcrow Yolles (structural); MCW Consultants Ltd. (mechanical/electrical); Cecconi Simone Inc. (interior); and MBTW Group (landscape).

Subtrades include: Anchor Shoring & Caissons Ltd.; ARO Excavating Ltd.; Bermingham Construction Ltd. (foundation).

The second phase is in excavation now. Will try and get updates pictures shortly.

I see these towers while driving along the 401 all the time. They look quite decent, one of the better looking developments in North York. Park Place will be a huge boost for ridership along the Sheppard Subway Line.

any news?? kinda seems like a big project to be forgotten.

It's still under construction. But always something seems to be going on there whenever I've gone past.

Tango is about 6 stories tall, while Tango 2 is still being excavated (expect a crane for this one in the coming weeks). Opus just launched, which is Concord's next phase.

These are some older shots I took of Tango and Tango2 a few weeks back.
