Oxford Properties has announced plans for a 60-storey office tower to be built at the northwest corner of Harbour and Bay streets in Downtown Toronto's quickly transforming South Core. Designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners of London, England, the building, branded The HUB, will offer 1.4 million square feet of space. Few other stats for are yet known about the proposed building at this point, including its height in metres, although that should be public shortly. At 60 storeys—office storeys are now typically higher than in office towers from before the last decade—plus with an atypically tall ground floor, look for this building to be a rival for tallest office tower in Toronto.

The tower will be positioned back from the corner allowing the heritage Toronto Harbour Commission Building to be seen from the corner at Bay. The HUB's standard office floors will also start many metres above the roof of the six-storey Harbour Commission Building, cantilevered over it.
