Two 15-storey condo towers are under construction in Newmarket, Ontario. Briarwood Development Group also envisions a connected three-storey podium that features street-level retail spaces fronting onto Davis Drive.
Kingsley Square, as its called, will bring 327 residential units, ranging from studios to two-bedroom suites to the new zone, which is calling for height and density along the recently completed York Region rapid transit system, and down the street from the Southlake Regional Healthcare Centre.
Kohn Partnership Architects has incorporated a public urban park into the design to promote pedestrian engagement and connectivity through the site to the Hollingsworth Park. The development is striving for LEED Silver, and will use an energy efficient building envelope to minimize HVAC demands. The development also incorporates a green roof.
Inside, residents will have access to a gym, co-working spaces, an event space, a rooftop terrace and an exterior courtyard, which functions as a public amenity. The condo is less than a kilometre from the Newmarket GO Station.
