New Low-Rise Condominium Going Up in Lawrence Park
Cresford Developments has announced the construction of Stratford Residences, a new low-rise building on Bayview Avenue, at the site of former Salvation Army College, just south of Lawrence Avenue. The project will accommodate units ranging from 1,550 to 4,275 square feet. A mid-rise building with only seven suites and 17 detached homes will be released in the next few months.
J.F. Brennan Design/Build Inc and Gluckstein Design, two well-known companies, were selected to provide the new community with a classic Georgian-style appearance intended to blend with homes in the Lawrence Park neighbourhood.
One of the most attractive features of this new development is that residents will be able to enjoy the outdoors from balconies, patios and gardens with barbecue hook-ups.
“We’ve attracted some buyers from the other neighbouring buildings because they didn’t have the outdoor space that they were looking for,” said Ms. Athanasoulis, Cresford vice-president of sales and marketing. “You can’t barbecue at some of the other buildings.”
Amenities will include a gym, pool and party room with a fireplace, bar and kitchen. Residents will be able to avail of a guest suite, 18-hour valet service and 24-hour concierge. The developer says courtyard gardens will also be created on the grounds.
The area’s main attractions include the Granite Club, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and York University’s Glendon Campus. Residents will have easy access to the many restaurants, gourmet stores, and antique stores on Bayview Avenue.
Occupancy is slated for fall, 2010.

Nice looking project. The BBQ hookups sound almost pioneering like. I`s nice to see someone building something that doesn`t go 40 storeys up and is made out of glass. Personally, these Victorian style condos and buildings are more preferred among the older couples with children and retired people. I should know since I specialize in toronto condos and have quite some experience in finding the right thing for my clients. I look forward to seeing this and more projects like this one being built around, to make the place look nice for a change.
