    Downtown living will be more affordable with the launch of Lumiere Condominiums on Bay, from Menkes Developments and the Lifetime Urban Development Group.

    "Lumiere is a real downtown location, right across from College Park, where there is a 24-hour grocery store and the subway," says Mimi Ng, director of marketing at Menkes.

    With a glass-clad exterior, Lumiere will be 30 storeys and have 330 suites. The design is modern, starting with the two-storey lobby's art deco theme, featuring chocolate zebrawood detailing, granite floors, an onyx fireplace and crystal chandeliers.

    The suites were designed by Munge//Leung: Design Associates, including the kitchen cabinetry and bathroom vanity, which Ng says are "unique to this project."

    Suite sizes will range from 491 square feet to 895 square feet, which is a two-bedroom plus den layout at $368,990. Maintenance fees are 43 cents a square foot, but don't include hydro or parking.
