Real estate company Ivanhoé Cambridge, and Metrolinx, the Province of Ontario’s regional transportation agency for the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, announced today an agreement that sets the stage for a forward-looking, integrated office and transit development in downtown Toronto.
Subject to pre-leasing progress, project construction could commence as early as spring 2015, with the new GO Bus Terminal to open approximately three years after the beginning of construction, and the first office tower to be completed within the months following the opening of the Terminal.
The development will feature:
A 2.7 million ft2 (250,000 m2), multi-phased, premium office complex at 45-141 Bay Street built to LEED® Platinum standards;
A new, larger GO Bus Terminal with the latest features and amenities at the base of the planned 45 Bay Street office tower to reinforce Union Station’s transit-hub capabilities; and
An elevated park above the rail corridor with new public green spaces.
In addition to the new bus terminal, the two towers will be connected via an elevated public park above the rail corridor which has already been dubbed ‘Skypark’. The podiums of the towers will also contain retail and amenities including a fitness centre and food services.
Paul Gleeson, Executive Vice President, Global Development, Ivanhoé Cambridge, said: “Our plan is to build a major, next-generation office tower complex designed to meet LEED® Platinum certification, with all the expected features of a AAA property. 45-141 Bay St. will be an architectural landmark of downtown Toronto, while offering best-in-market premises for our tenants.”
