TORONTO, Oct. 3, 2023 /CNW/ - Greenwin, a leading Ontario full-service real estate development and management firm, and Intentional Capital ("Intentional"), a Toronto-based real estate firm specializing in purpose-built multi-residential buildings, announced that they have entered into a joint venture with Windsor Private Capital ("Windsor"). Windsor Private Capital is an asset management firm headquartered in Toronto, primarily focused on real estate lending and equity investments. The partnership will see the redevelopment of the historic Palace Arms Hotel at 950 King St. West as a mixed-use residential housing project in Toronto's vibrant King West community.
Built in 1890, the Palace Arms is one of King West's most iconic landmarks. Conserving and rehabilitating the building's existing principal facades – along with its heritage brick masonry, window openings, variegated roof lines and masonry chimneys – the new development is expected to consist of one 14-storey tower totalling 219 rental units on a 15,000 square foot lot and will feature a mix of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom units as well as live/work suites at grade. With a mandate to meet the housing needs of a dynamic mix of renters, the development will also incorporate a number of affordable studio suites.
Residents will enjoy an amenity package that includes a commercial quality fitness facility, co-work space, social room, automated parcel management system, bike lockers, pet wash, yoga studio, multi-purpose room, and rooftop patio with BBQs and children's play area. The location is directly on the King West TTC line and within walking distance to Liberty Village, Trinity Bellwoods Park and the Financial District.
"We're thrilled to see the City supporting new development and look forward to bringing this landmark project to market," said Kevin Green, President and CEO, Greenwin.
