In Toronto, a lot can change in a very short period of time, especially in the world of real estate and development. When we last covered CentreCourt Developments’ Core Condos a few weeks back, the condominium development was just about to hit the market. Two days after our story was published, Core Condos went into sales, and in the three weeks since the project has sold out all 220 of its condominium units.

It’s a good for both the market in general, and for the east side of Downtown specifically, where sales have traditionally been a bit slower. Of course, the development itself must provide what purchasers are looking for. We suspect that Core’s striking design hooked a lot of people as soon as they saw it…

Comment: Having lived a lot of my childhood just down the street from there, it is always nice for me to see more development in this forgotten part of the city.

Set to rise 24-storeys from the corner of Shuter and Dalhousie, just southwest of the Jarvis and Dundas intersection, the Page + Steele / IBI Group Architects-designed tower will feature two distinct façades differentiating the eastern and western elevations, and a unique three-storey podium with stone and heritage façades.

The podium will incorporate the southern heritage façade of 68 and 70 Shuter Street, a 19th century Georgian-style row house, while the compromised façades of the adjacent 64 and 66 Shuter Street will be taken down to make way for the development.

Core’s 220 units will range in size from 390 square feet to 775 square feet, with amenity spaces including a 3,000 square foot open-concept lounge with a café/bar as well as beanbag and hanging chairs.
