As one of Canada’s fastest growing cities in 2022, Oshawa has become a diverse urban centre buzzing with energy and anticipation. The city’s GDP has seen a rapid increase of an astonishing 4.7 per cent, and just this past year, Oshawa was voted the No. 1 Place to Live In Durham, according to Maclean’s magazine.

Perhaps Oshawa Mayor Dan Carter put it best when he said, “The rest of Canada is discovering why so many of us are proud to live, work, and learn in our great city.” Today, it seems as though the city of Oshawa just might be Canada’s best kept secret. Offering homebuyers unprecedented value, optimal access to services and convenient transit options, sprawling protected greenspaces and trails, world-class education and, of course, strong employment growth.

Immense and untapped potential

Not too long ago, Oshawa was a suburban factory town, a humble community of modest, interconnected neighbourhoods amidst an expanse of fields and greenspaces. It was home to those who worked and played across southern Ontario, but where some saw a sleepy suburb, others saw a landscape brimming with opportunity.

Enter Tribute Communities. In partnership with one of Canada’s largest real estate investment trusts – RioCan Living – Tribute sought to realize Oshawa’s immense and untapped potential by creating the city’s first true milestone community. One that would stand as a testament to the highest facets of connected, contemporary urban family living. A grand vision to create a new city centre brimming with vibrancy, in what would become Oshawa’s future uptown core. It was this transformative notion that would spark an unprecedented citywide change, and continue to have a profound impact over a decade after its inception. Consequently, the U.C. community was born.

Opening for sale in 2013, the first iteration of U.C. was a sizable undertaking of more than 2,000 townhomes, semis and detached-singles. A vibrant streetscape of the city’s best home designs was sewn into a tapestry of vast natural spaces, preserved with parks, ponds, and an expansive network of trails weaved throughout the community itself. Beyond becoming Oshawa’s greatest residential sales success, it laid the foundations for five more low and highrise phases, and helped create the infrastructure for Oshawa’s largest retail development with RioCan Windfields, just moments away. In all, the whole of U.C. has brought thousands of new residents to Oshawa, and continues to attract more.

To date, the U.C. community represents Oshawa’s total transformation into one of southern Ontario’s most prolific urban hubs. Building on a foundation of excellence to create a new expression of contemporary and connected living. Its ideal location places it just moments from landmark institutions such as Ontario Tech University and Durham College, the city’s best retail opportunities, the diverse eateries of Simcoe St., cherished protected greenspaces and conservation areas, ideal local and regional transit, and convenient access to Hwys. 401, 407, and 412.

Acclaimed U.C. community

Now, Tribute Communities has announced the newest extension of the acclaimed U.C. community is coming soon with U.C. Tower 3. Sharing a podium with its rapidly sold-out predecessor, U.C. Tower 2, this new addition has been meticulously designed to appeal to a wide range of homebuyers. Offering a medley of suite designs ideal for both families and young professionals, world-class amenity spaces, refined features, upscale finishes and so much more, U.C.
