Shelborne Proposes 39-Storey MF Project in Toronto’s Little Jamaica District
Shelborne Capital plans to development a 39-story multi-family real estate project in Toronto’s Little Jamaica district.
The company has filed a development application with the city. Bousfields, a Toronto-based planning consultancy, filed the application on Shelborne’s behalf.
The development site is located at 1711-1171 Englinton Avenue West, within walking distance of the Fairbank and Oakwood stations on the future Line 5 Eglinton Crosstown LRT. The project would replace an existing two-storey building that contains eight apartments and eight ground-floor commercial units.
Plans call for a 26,800-square-foot mixed-use building with 423 multi-residential suites, including eight rental replacement units, and a community cultural space.
The indoor and outdoor community space is to be transferred to the city for programming. Albeit part of a standalone development application, the project considers Toronto-based Shelborne’s concurrent application to redevelop lands to the immediate east, 1675-1685 Eglinton West.
The property is also slated to contain parking spaces for 481 bicycles and 90 vehicles.
