• Hanes, Tracy. (2006, 6 May). "Two-storey penthouses offer dramatic views". Toronto Star.

  Soaring 18-foot windows and two-storey lofts will provide sweeping views of the city for penthouse purchasers in boutique.

  The building will be on Simcoe St., one block west of University Ave., between King St. and Queen St., near the financial and entertainment districts, close to two subway stops and the underground PATH system.

  Designed by ZAS Architects, boutique's seven-storey brick podium takes its inspiration from the surrounding industrial warehouse district while its sleek, 16-storey glass tower is all about contemporary architecture.

  The dramatic boutique lobby has been designed by Cecconi Simone, with limestone floors, a custom frosted white-glass chandelier, gas fireplace, lounge seating and an art installation.

  boutique is being developed by the Urban Capital Property Group in partnership with West Development Group, Malibu Investments Inc. and ALIT Developments Inc.
