The final build-out of M City project will include a ten residential condo towers with over 6,000 units for sale or rent on 4.3 million square feet. Key community features will include extending existing city streets on an angular plane to form a net-work of land parcels and create a pedestrian-friendly environment.
The first and most visible phase of the project will be a 60-storey tower, on top of an extended 5-storey horizontal base or “podium” of public facilities and retail and recreational uses. The podium has a prismatic shape by virtue of its faceted glass walls as well as a large rooftop amenity and green roof. It has been designed to form the street edge along Burnhamthorpe and Confederation. The ground level is rounded out with retail units and landscaping. These areas are intended to encour-age a lively and interesting pedestrian environment.
