Vote for the GTA’s project of the year
March 26, 2016
Every year, we recognize innovation and excellence in the land development and homebuilding industry through our annual BILD Awards program. In April we will present 48 awards to members who are raising the bar in the marketing, designing, planning and building of communities across the GTA.
Our awards program also has an extra special accolade — the People’s Choice Award. It recognizes the best new home development project of the year in the GTA and the winner is chosen by the public through an online voting process.
You can vote at bildpca.ca until April 6. The website features the full list of finalists, project names and locations, the builders, a short description and images.
The eight projects vying for the title were shortlisted from the BILD Awards finalists in the Mid/High-Rise Project of the Year and Low-Rise Project of the Year categories.
Projects range from a townhouse development in Toronto’s Queen West neighbourhood that is appealing to millennials, to a highrise building with lobbies designed by a fashion icon, to a premier four-season resort on Lake Simcoe.
Competing for the title of People’s Choice is the Art Shoppe Lofts and Condos, a 28-storey building by Freed Developments and Capital Development with lobbies designed by fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld at Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue. Another finalist is East United Condos by Signature Communities, which will bring 289 new homes including townhomes to King and Berkeley streets. The nine-storey J. Davis House by Mattamy Homes and Biddington pays homage to the history of Davisville Village and the Lighthouse Tower at Daniels Waterfront — City of the Arts by The Daniels Corporation is a 45-storey building designed with unique artistic aspects inside and out.
Also vying for the title are 35 Wabash, a new four-storey building in Toronto’s Roncesvalles community by Zinc Developments and a townhome community by Great Gulf Homes called Brockton Commons that appeals to millennials in the Queen West neighbourhood. Simcoe County’s new four-season resort, Friday Harbour by Geranium Corporation and Pemberton Group, is another finalist and so is Kennedy Manors, a development including 132 town manor homes by Kylemore Communities’ near Unionville’s historical Main Street.
