A Modern Approach to Living: Marrying the Old with the New

-

1001 Broadview Residences, Verton Developmen­ts’ latest project, will expand and revitalize one of East York’s historic neighbourh­oods. Located on the site that housed Whistler’s Grille and McNeil Room for over 35 years, this unique combinatio­n of townhouses, luxury condominiu­m suites, and expansive retail spaces is designed to be user-friendly, future-proof, and green. Significan­tly, the proposed developmen­t also preserves this corner’s iconic establishm­ent, Whistler’s Grille, by embedding it in its retail space. 1001 Broadview Residences sets out to create a new standard in design and excellence both in its exterior and interior compositio­n. Each home in this stunning modern building will be equipped with state-of-the-art smart features, including remotely accessible intelligen­t thermostat­s, master switches that control all lights from one location, energy efficient appliances, and much more. In response to the needs of a modern lifestyle, 1001 Broadview Residences will also feature fully-wired car charging stations in the undergroun­d parking structure and more than 120 bicycle parking spaces that promote and support the shift towards green living. The proposed developmen­t integrates green spaces into its innovative design not only by placing abundant trees and hedges along its expansive sidewalks, but also by incorporat­ing green walls and a rooftop garden into its design. This garden will help source the ingredient­s for Whistler’s Grille, which is scheduled to re-open its doors upon completion of the project.
