The powerful modernism of 18 Yorkville's towering facade is tempered by a classic symmetry
that acknowledges the area's artistic heritage. In the eloquent
simplicity of its architecture, 18 Yorkville speaks volumes about both its provenance,
and its ability to stand the test of time. 18 Yorkville is comprised of three separate
by related elements: a 36-storey tower on Yorkville at Yonge Street with exhilirating
views from floor-to-ceiling windows; an exclusive, 7-storey enclave on Scollard Street in
the Boston back bay style with condominium suites; and a jewel-like public park that will
harmonize with and integrate the adjoining historic Yorkville public library.
