2180 Yonge | ?m | 65s | Oxford Properties | Hariri Pontarini Architects l masterplan (revised)
A vastly-improved masterplan was presented recently, now led just by Hariri Pontarini Architects (HPA). Pelli Clarke Pelli are out.
A much larger park is located on the western part of the site (lots of sunlight away from the towers), an urban plaza on Yonge with mid-block connections through the site (appropriately named “Canada Square”),
a large community-use footprint (possible school), an atrium/canopy between towers (reminicent of ’The Well’) and retention of the handsome office tower at 2200 Yonge.
A “Yonge Eglinton Plaza” has been incorporated at the north-east corner to improve access to both the TTC and the site itself, along with better mixes of office, residential and retail through out.
The retained 2200 Yonge office building is on the right below.
