Hullmark Centre by Tridel will soon be transforming the cityscape at Yonge and Sheppard in North York. Contact me now to register for your chance to purchase a suite in this project before the public launch.
The project will feature a dynamic mix of retail, commercial and residential use that will be unique to Toronto. The concept is almost like a minature Yonge-Dundas Square, or call it Yonge-Sheppard Square.
Certainly the Yonge and Sheppard corridor has absolutely taken off in recent years and with the launch of mega towers like Hullmark and Emerald Park, uptown has become a sort of ‘new downtown’. There are serious concerns growing over how the roads will handle all these thousands of new residents, however, with both Emerald Park and Hullmark featuring direct subway access, this will certainly help alleviate the situation and encourage people to either leave the car at home, or not even own a car at all.
From Tridel’s marketing materials:
Hullmark Centre. A signature development at the corner of Yonge and Sheppard marked by a prestige office component, prime retail fronting onto a vibrant public plaza, and the two tallest condominium towers to grace the North York skyline. Served by direct indoor underground access to the Yonge and Sheppard subway station, this is the most important corner and address in the city. It is undeniably central.
Contact me to be the first to receive floor plans and pricing for Hullmark Centre.
Oct 11 update: Floor plans and pricing for the VIP Sales Event now available. Contact me now to get your hands on them right away!
Good news condo investors. I now have access to units at Emerald Park in advance of the upcoming agent’s only sales event in July. Please contact me now with what unit you are interested in.
Here is a sample of a few units I have available for purchase RIGHT NOW:
1) Unit 4107 - Penthouse suite (top floor of building-soon to be unit 4707 as they will be adding more floors), 1163 sq ft, 2 bed + den, 2 full baths including a spectactular master ensuite with double sinks and separate shower and tub, Contact me for price. North west corner unit.
2) Unit 3306, 778 sq ft, 2+den, Contact me for price west exposure.
3) unit 2904, 581 sq. ft, 1 bedroom, Contact me for price
All the above units are going to be in the East tower. (there will be an east and a west tower)
Let me know if you are interested in any of these units and if you would like to purchase a unit BEFORE the sales event in July.
The excitement is growing and this project is looking really good. More and more news stories are focused on the gap that is growing in real estate values between the suburbs and the city. With DIRECT SUBWAY ACCESS Emerald Park is sure to be a fantastic investment both now and in the years to come and more and more Canadians ditch the suburbs and move back in the city. Just yesterday there was another article on this subject in the New York Times.
From Bazi’s International, the developer behind 1 Bloor and Crystal Blu, Emerald Park is about to be launched at Yonge and Sheppard. Contact me now for your chance to buy before the public and save thousands.
Stand out features include direct subway access, high-end Miele appliances, 9′ ceilings, and LEED certification. Amenities include indoor pool, roof top terrace, party rooms, and state of the art fitness and Yoga centre. Every suite will have a balcony and terrace suites will be available.
Prices from the $200s but most suites 700 sq. ft and above will be in the 3s and 4s. Price per square foot is in the $460-500 range which is good considering the direct subway access feature (excellent for resale).
This is probably the most highly anticipated development in the Yonge and Sheppard corridor this year. Please contact me now if you are interested as it will sell quickly and prices will go up accordingly. GET IN EARLY!

It has been quite a whirlwind over the past month or so with Aura taking up much of my time and nearly all the requests I have received from my website over the past month has been about the 75 storey mega tower from Canderel Stoneridge, set to be erected at Yonge and Gerrard. Here is the latest on Aura:
The VIP period is over. The broker’s event basically sold out the building in a matter of hours. See more on the broker’s event on my last two posts over at blogTO.com. But does that mean there are no suites left? NO! THERE ARE STILL SUITES AVAILABLE AT AURA!
All of the suites currently available are on the executive level floors (56 and higher) and are starting at around $500-600K for 1+dens. The executive level suites are entirely upgraded from top to bottom and are in fact, a separate condominium altogether from the lower floors. Canderel has done something quite unique in separating the lower and upper floors into what will eventually be 2 condo corporations within 1 building. An interesting fact: the maintenance fees are much lower on the executive levels than the lower levels (33 cents per square foot versus 49 cents on the lower), although the prices are much higher due to the various upgrades. If you are interested in purchasing an Executive Level suite at Aura, please contact me.
So what is next? Next up is going to be the highly anticipated PUBLIC LAUNCH. Yes, they have held off specific floors for the public launch. However, they have not held off very many floors. They have not announced the date of the public launch, however, it will likely be either the first or second Saturday in April. As soon as the public launch date is announced I do expect there will be a line up of agents once again at the door of the sales office. They will once again wait for days and days to get their shot at buying a unit.
What will the prices be at the public launch and what suites will be available? Those questions are anyone’s guess. We will have to wait and see what happens.
If you are still interested in purchasing a suite at Aura, please contact me to discuss the best strategy for getting you the unit you want.

Once again, sales to the general public will not begin for several weeks. Whether you are a seasoned investor or first time buyer, the best time to buy in a new development like this is at the very beginning-before prices go up and the best suites are gone. Contact me for more information or to reserve your suite of choice ahead of the crowds that are sure to line up for this project.
