The second tower has arrived at the Design District – one of Canada’s most successful developments of 2022

Investors and homebuyers couldn’t get their hands on The Design District condominium community fast enough. Suites flew off the shelf when Emblem Developments launched the first of three towers in Hamilton in July of this year. The overwhelming response has allowed for tower two to be launched earlier than expected.

“The high demand for suites at The Design District, along with our ability to independently finance our own developments, means that we will be starting construction in March 2023 for the first tower,” says Kash Pashootan, founder and CEO, Emblem. “This type of schedule adjustment rarely happens, ensuring our community will be built to exceed buyer expectations.”

Rapid growth

Hamilton is rapidly growing through its commitment of a $4-billion investment into a new entertainment hub, revitalization of existing venues, and transit infrastructure. The well-thought-out transit infrastructure that is being built throughout the city is connecting what once felt like an outskirt city to a closely knit community of the GTA. The possibilities are endless for buyers and investors looking to enjoy owning real estate in the heart of Hamilton’s emerging new downtown.

“Buyers are looking for buildings that don’t blend in,” says Shamil Jiwani, vice-president, investment, Emblem. “In today’s market, buyers need distinct features that translate into high price appreciation, and strong rental rates. That’s why The Design District demonstrates that this community is the best investment of 2022.”

 

 

Located at 41 Wilson St., The Design District promises to be a landmark with grand-scale modern luxury while remaining charming, balanced and intimate. It features three soaring, 31-storey towers connected by a midrise podium with retail at ground level. The spectacular new residence took its design cues from renowned locations in London, New York and Miami. Pashootan and the team describe The Design District as “A forever moment. An ode to art and design,” bound to contribute significantly to the changing face of Hamilton.

Hotel-like amenities

The Design District offers 931 suites that range from 369-sq.-ft. studios to 1,012-sq.-ft. three-bedrooms and hotel-like amenities, such as an outdoor swimming pool and terrace lounge, impressive lobby lounge, gym, yoga studio, coworking space and party room. Everything is outfitted in high-end features and finishes. The Design District ensures that residents have spaces to relax, reset and recharge at home.

Emblem Developments – one of the fastest-growing real estate development companies in the GTA – has a current development portfolio of more than 4,300 residences representing more than $3.3 billion of development value in Toronto, Mississauga, Hamilton and Ottawa. A design-focused builder, Emblem operates under the slogan “The Mark of Exceptional Design” and has inherently been recognized with prestigious awards, including BILD, Best Suite Design for 1 Jarvis in Hamilton; and The Nationals, Best Presentation Centre for Artform in Mississauga.
