A mixed-use condominium complex comprised of an 11-storey (36.5 metre high) mid-rise building and a 24-storey (74.85 metre high) tower, both heights exclusive of mechanical penthouses of 5.5 metres, and connected by an 8-storey (27.21 metre high) mid-rise building containing a total of 398 residential units and 472 square metres of grade-related retail and 369 parking spaces in a 5-level underground parking structure.  An on-site parkland dedication of 309 square metres is also proposed.
