Gallery Towers – Remington’s jewel in downtown Markham

In downtown Markham, art weaves itself inextricably into daily life, creating an urban experience unlike anywhere else. Here, amid the interplay of art installations, sleek architecture and modern-day must haves, a new crown jewel emerges: Gallery Towers. The Remington Group’s latest highrise project, Gallery Towers offers a place where everyday living is infused with inspiration, imagination and innovation.

Gallery Towers will be just steps away from York University’s new Markham Centre Campus (MCC), the first public university in York Region, scheduled to open in 2024. Featuring an impressive vertical campus by Diamond Schmitt Architects, MCC will be fully integrated with the area’s network of commerce, athletics, arts and entrepreneurial communities. The $275.5-million building will consist of a five-storey podium with a five-storey tower above. The 400,000-sq.-ft. facility will open onto a sloping Campus Green that creates an outdoor focal point for social gatherings, its low-incline pathways connecting to the state-of-the-art Pan Am Centre next door, plus a major transit hub.

Future growth demands

The campus will accommodate up to 4,200 students in its first phase with the flexibility to respond to future growth demands. The new campus promises to be a community of change-makers, fulfilling future labour market demands and civic leadership by giving future students the skills required for economic competitiveness and community development in Markham, York Region and across Ontario. MCC will also provide more than 400 new jobs, enhancing the opportunity to live, play and work in downtown Markham.

Located within the growing community of 243 acres, Gallery Towers will be seamlessly connected to public transit and major roadways. The site is also adjacent to the protected greenspace of the Rouge River, providing a rich assembly of natural, cultural and pastoral landscapes.

The river system provides a connection to Rouge River Park, North America’s largest urban national park, with a regional network of more than 200 kms of walking and cycling trails. Combine that with more than 500,000 existing sq. ft. of retail and commercial space – including the award-winning 200-plus room Marriott Hotel, along with 100,000 sq. ft. of fitness facilities. Gallery Towers will also be within walking distance to the trendiest restaurants, technology hubs and multicultural, family-friendly programming, making it a city within a city.

The main ideology attached to downtown Markham is in its $30-million public art initiative, cleverly integrated into the public spaces throughout, making the entire community a gallery without walls. Residents and visitors of this thriving neighbourhood can expect to encounter traditional and untraditional forms of art with recurring themes of sustainability awareness and surrealism.

The unique and environmentally friendly Pride of Canada Carousel is the kinetic centrepiece of the Remington Contemporary Art Gallery (RCAG) collection. Unlike any carousel ever created, each of its 44 rideable sculptures have been crafted from found and recycled objects. The carousel serves as a cultural landmark and venue for community gatherings and events.

Gallery Towers offers the opportunity to live in luxury in the heart of it all.

Remington’s suite designs offer open-concept layouts, oversized living spaces with exceptional design and craftsmanship, right down to the smallest detail. Infused with natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows, generously sized master bedroom suites and oversized living areas to gourmet kitchens, the lifestyle is both urban and comfortable at once.

Well-respected builder-developer

Gallery Towers’ modern suites will be available in one-, two- and three-bedroom designs and will be graced with high-quality finishes and features that speak to inspired urban living. Among them are nine-ft. ceiling heights (10-ft. in the penthouses), roomy balconies and terraces suitable for al fresco dining; contemporary laminate flooring throughout; finely crafted kitchen cabinetry with full height uppers and a multi-function kitchen island with a quartz top, dining space and extra storage; and integrated appliances. Suite prices will begin from the $600,000s.

One of the best reasons to choose Gallery Towers as your residential destination is the ability to purchase with confidence from a well-respected builder-developer. With more than 65 years of experience building dynamic communities in southern Ontario, The Remington Group (TRG) develops and operates a cross-section of residential, retail and commercial properties. With each project, TRG goes above and beyond industry standards to develop distinctive vibrant spaces that enrich a community. Shaping a community to celebrate human connectivity, to ensure and engage with one another, but most importantly to create a thriving city centre – where people can live, work, learn and play.

The Remington Group has evolved into one of the province’s largest land developers, by realizing the true potential of urban spaces. At full build out, downtown Markham will become North America’s largest collection of LEED certified buildings, and will reduce carbon emissions by up to 50 per cent.

Downtown Markham is truly a place to live, work, study, shop, entertain, dine and play – this is sure to be the most coveted address in downtown Markham, where condominium residences are always in demand.
