Construction is well under way at Menkes’ fabulously successful residence at Yonge and Sheppard.
Sophistication and style reach the height of panache at Savvy Condominiums at Cosmo – Menkes’ highly successful residence in the heart of North York City Centre, just steps from the Yonge and Sheppard subway station. This masterplanned community incorporates a sleek 22-storey glass building, townhomes and two lushly landscaped parkettes, and is expected to be completed next year in spring 2012. Construction on Savvy is progressing well as preparations are currently taking place for the pouring of the 3rd floor of the tower.
Savvy’s location appeals to discriminating purchasers who appreciate the proximity to Highway 401 and the multitude of amenities in North York City Centre. There are shopping, dining and entertainment options along Yonge Street, as well as the services and amenities of Sheppard Centre and Empress Walk Shopping Centre. Golfing, several parks and cultural venues including the Toronto Centre for the Arts are all just blocks away.
From the moment you pull up to Savvy, you know you have arrived at a special destination. The building features a welcoming landscaped roundabout entry accessed from a quiet side street. The elegant lobby is highlighted by chic seating lounges, exotic green plantings, dramatic elliptical columns of rich polished wood, a shimmering chandelier and a courteous 24-hour concierge.
The
Savvy Club entertainment and fitness centre is a wonderful amenity space where an indoor swimming pool offers access to an outdoor terrace. Residents also enjoy access to a fully equipped fitness and aerobics centre, and separate men’s and women’s change rooms with saunas. The grand Party Room has a fireplace lounge, equipped bar and caterer’s kitchen with access to the outdoor terrace with a water feature as well. The private dining room is available for large gatherings, and the adjacent theatre room (with surround sound) and games room provide perfect spots for getting together.
The suites at Savvy are characterized by luxurious features and finishes, beginning with the gourmet kitchen, where designer kitchen cabinetry encompasses a polished granite countertop, mosaic tile backsplash, and premium stainless-steel appliances. Flooring choices include ceramic or porcelain tiles and the choice of premium plank laminate (all as per plan). Sumptuous bathrooms are home to designer vanity cabinetry with a cultured marble countertop and drop-in china basin. For your in-suite laundry convenience, each unit includes a stacked ENERGY STAR® washer and dryer.
Savvy is also being designed as a “Menkes Green” condominium featuring innovative environmental initiatives for a cleaner, healthier, energy efficient and more economical lifestyle – starting with its location at a subway hub, which will encourage public transit use. Magic-Pak meter technology and individual hydro metering will provide year-round, personally controlled comfort and electrical systems for maximum energy efficiency. Suites will be constructed with energy-saving materials and lighting – including an “all off” light switch, double-glazed Low-E windows and low volatile compound paints. They will also include features such as low-flow showerheads and faucets, and dual flush toilets to promote water efficiency.
With over 50 years of industry experience, Menkes Developments prides itself on providing outstanding quality and lasting value. Savvy is a brilliant example of Menkes’ excellence in creating quality living spaces through innovative design and meticulous craftsmanship.
