  • Rook, Katie. (2007, 30 April). "$16M condo unit signals market shift". National Post.

    A planned condominium building in Yorkville will feature the city's most expensive penthouse --a $16-million unit.

    The creation of a 9,000- square-foot space atop the soonto- be built Four Seasons Hotel marks a coming of age for Toronto, co-designer Brian Gluckstein said in a recent interview.

    The 55-storey tower at Bay Street and Yorkville Avenue will house 103 private residences above a 253-room hotel, while a second 25-storey tower will include 101 private residences.


  • Macdonald, Greg. (2007, 20 January). "Yorkville towers approved". National Post.

    The Ontario Municipal Board has approved a $500-million project, including the city's seventh- highest building, to be built in ''the armpit of Yorkville.''

    The 50-storey, 195-metre tower will be a part of the Four Seasons hotel-condominium complex on Bay Street, between Scollard Street and Yorkville Avenue.

    The complex will also contain a 24-storey residential building. The higher tower will consist of a 20-floor hotel, as well as condo units, for a total of 241 condos and 250 hotel rooms.


  • Won, Shirley. (2005, 25 July). "Four Seasons to Announce New 55 storey Hotel in Yorkville". Globe and Mail.

    Four Seasons Hotels Inc. today will take the wraps off a posh, $325-million hotel project in Toronto's tony Yorkville district that will go head to head against new rivals as the battle heats up for well-heeled customers.

    The chain will run the 265-room hotel slated for opening in 2009. It will be owned by Saudi Arabia's Prince al-Waleed bin Talal, ranked by Forbes as the world's fifth richest man.

    The new 55-storey hotel, which will become Yorkville's tallest building, is also a long way from Mr. Sharp's beginnings when he opened the Four Seasons motor hotel on Toronto's Jarvis Street in 1961, an area he describes as a "hookers' paradise" at the time.

    The Four Seasons project, which will file applications for rezoning this week, includes plans for 125 luxury condo units on the upper floors during the first phase. There will also be a second-phase condo tower to be built later, which will be connected to the hotel.


  • "Four Seasons to Announce New Hotel in Yorkville". (2005, 25 July). www.yorkvilleresidences.com/.

    Bay-Yorkville Developments Ltd., a joint venture between Menkes Developments and Lifetime Homes, both of Toronto and Halcyon Ventures of Boston, announced today that it has recently signed an agreement in principle with Kingdom Hotels to pursue the development of a new 265-room luxury hotel.
