Our sister site UrbanToronto.ca reports the latest details about a supertall proposal called YSL Residences, featuring a design by Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates and local firm architectsAlliance. In the time since it was proposed, Cresford Developments has revised the design profile of the 98-storey tower, with alterations mainly focused on the base and the crown.
It's heady times for Toronto's future skyline. In the last week, sales have launched for Mizrahi Developments' The One, it was announced that Great Gulf would be the driving force behind Mirvish+Gehry, and two other supertalls appeared before Toronto's Design Review Panel. We've been talking about Pinnacle One Yonge in a pair of stories; the other proposal, YSL (which stands for both Yonge Street Living and Yves Saint Laurent), the tallest of the bunch, was also before the panel.
Located at 383 Yonge at the southeast corner with Gerrard, the 343.9 metre/1,128 foot YSL Residences is being designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and architectsAlliance for Cresford Developments. What was presented for the DRP has evolved somewhat from what we first saw when the development plans were first revealed in February of this year.
