Pinnacle One Yonge

Pinnacle One Yonge, a waterfront development where the longest street in North America meets Lake Ontario, rethinks the typical mix of residential, commercial, and retail space found in Toronto. The multi-phase development will comprise of five new towers and re-clad the existing Toronto Star building, all within two city blocks. Designed to intensify and enhance the urban streetscape, the project connects to public transit, improves and widens sidewalks, and provides prioritized pedestrian and cyclist access with north-south and east-west mid-block connections.

Phases 1 to 3 encompass the North Block, and include three residential towers (65, 105, and 92 storeys) with a hotel, affordable housing, a new community centre, and retail. The 65-storey Prestige is currently under construction, while the recently announced SkyTower is set to become the tallest residential building in Canada at 105 storeys. Phases 4 and 5 will introduce two new office towers with extensive retail on the first two levels (22 and 40 storeys) to the South Block, including recladding the existing Toronto Star building. Residents and visitors will have access to outdoor amenities and public art, including two new public parks planned adjacent to the project site.

By connecting to the climate-controlled PATH, Toronto’s downtown underground pedestrian network, One Yonge provides direct access to Union Station―the city’s regional transportation hub and Canada’s busiest, with 250,000 daily visitors. Once completed, One Yonge will act as a gateway to the developing waterfront community with a design that strives to set a new standard for dense urban revitalization.
