At the meeting of Bay Street and Davenport Road The Florian rises in a crescent shape where Toronto’s high-end retail district Yorkville and beautiful historic residential neighbourhood of Rosedale meet. The crescent form of the building was determined by the site’s unusual shape. Davenport Road follows the path of ancient Native Canadian trail and is consequently one of Toronto’s only streets that is off the regular grid pattern of the city, creating a curved site at the Bay Street terminus. The site will be mixed-use having retail space at ground floor level and large luxurious units above. The material palette for this development has been well considered to reflect the high-end nature of the units and location.
