Garrison Point

Toronto, ON

The guiding principle to living at Garrison Point starts with close attention to the interplay of architectural form, urban design, open space, and the public realm within downtown Toronto. The development creates a new mixed-use neighbourhood of quality inner-city residences in the historic Fort York district of southwest Toronto. Sited to preserve views enjoyed by existing area residents, and to provide city vistas for future residents, the master-planned development includes five HPA-designed residential towers ranging from 24 to 39 storeys—half of which will be rental buildings. The development also includes a four-acre park designed by Claude Cormier + Associés, retail, and a new home for Eva’s Phoenix, an at-risk youth shelter.

The overall composition acts as a counterpoint to the more uniform housing in nearby Liberty Village. Residents share amenities and have direct access to green space in the proposed four-acre park.

Massed as individually sculpted forms, each high-rise tower contributes a distinctive silhouette to the Toronto skyline.

The development assembles larger-than-usual apartment plans to attract families, within smaller-than-usual building footprints, creating an open spatial experience at the urban scale.

For the city at large, the expansive park within the development serves as a touchdown point for the new Fort York pedestrian and cycle bridge, linking the soon-to-be-expanded Stanley Park to the north, Liberty Village to the west, and the lakefront to the south.
