en.Wedoany.com Reported - Canadian developer Woodcliffe has unveiled the final design for a 32-storey mixed-use residential project in Toronto's Summerhill neighbourhood. Located at the intersection of Yonge Street and Birch Avenue, the project includes heritage restoration, public realm design, and 62 private residences. According to the plan, the project will involve the restoration of the North Toronto Station (LCBO) and the Shops of Summerhill as part of public realm improvements.

The architectural design is led by Peter Clewes of architectsAlliance. In a statement, he said Summerhill aims to create a building that belongs to its community; its architectural style is modern yet quiet and enduring, focusing on proportion, materials, light, and the living experience of residents, rather than spectacle. From an architectural perspective, the project adopts a quieter and more enduring expression of luxury.

On the ground floor, the historic retail storefronts along Yonge Street will be carefully preserved and restored to maintain the street's scale, character, and continuity. The project employs a large-format curtain wall system, flush glazing, wide windows, and porcelain cladding to create a refined modern aesthetic. The slender point tower form minimizes its impact at street level while providing natural light, privacy, and protected views for residences. The interior design is by Brian Gluckstein, tailored for residents who appreciate the scale, character, and convenience of community living but wish to avoid the responsibilities of a detached home.
