Mattamy Homes recently celebrated two project milestones. The mid-rise community of BLVD Q launched on the Queensway in Etobicoke this week, while the 157-unit mid-rise Carding House development broke ground in Oakville last week.
BLVD Q is a mixed-use residential development standing at 11 storeys, with quiet co-working zones and complete independent workspaces. A versatile event space featuring a cocktail lounge can easily transform for social gatherings or private events. The amenities are built to cater to residents’ diverse needs and preferences. On the sixth floor, large terraces serve as an oasis, offering fitness areas, spaces for kids, dining spots and lounging areas.
“Our vision for BLVD Q was to create a building that not only revitalizes the retail street but also becomes a model neighbour for the community,” said Mike Lock of TACT Architecture. “The project exemplifies the principles of what we refer to as ‘Warm Modernism’, combining clean lines, warm materials and articulation of the building mass into smaller, more approachable pieces to create an inviting architecture. Our goal is to ensure that it resonates positively within the existing urban fabric while keeping an eye on the future of the neighborhood.”
Interior design firm Mason Studios has envisioned “timeless elegance and urban sophistication,” with a welcoming atmosphere.
“Guided by three overarching design principles – longevity, experience, and redefinition – we aimed to create a sense of timeless sophistication and beauty within BLVD Q,” says Ashley Rumsey, partner, Mason Studio. “By using classic design gestures with contemporary sensibilities, we’ve designed a welcoming environment that residents will proudly call home. Our goal is to offer a high-impact, versatile, and empowering living experience that stands the test of time.”
Carding House
The five-storey Carding House in The Preserve community features boutique condos and spacious townhomes.
“Carding House represents an exciting chapter in Oakville’s growth story,” says Shane Cooney, senior vice president of development at Mattamy Homes. “Our aim is to provide the Oakville community with the perfect blend of modern comfort and the timeless charm this city is known for. It’s an honour to break ground on this project and contribute to Oakville’s bright future.”
Residents of Carding House will gave access to parks and walking trails. The development will also offer an indoor/outdoor lounge and easy access to the Oakville GO station.
“Mattamy Homes is proud to contribute to the growth and vitality of the GTA’s urban landscape,” said Niall Haggart, President of Mattamy’s GTA Urban Division. “BLVD Q and Carding House represent prime examples of our commitment to providing exceptional living spaces in thriving communities.”
