The recent release of Sky Suites at
Picasso on Richmond has proven a tremendous success, with enthusiastic purchasers jumping at the opportunity to own in this exciting Entertainment District condominium. Among the designs,
Monarch Corporation and The Goldman Group offered 12 totally new layouts. A spectacular selection remains, offering tremendous value in one of Toronto’s most sought-after “A” locations.
Two of Canada’s oldest and most prestigious development companies, Monarch Corporation and The Goldman Group are well versed in selecting prime locales. Picasso on Richmond will rise on the north side of Richmond, on axis with Beverly Street and the head of Widmer Street, at one of downtown’s most significant sites. Residents will be able to walk an array of amenities including stores, restaurants, theatres and services along King and Queen Streets. Air Canada Centre, Rogers Centre, Roy Thomson Hall and TIFF Bell Lightbox are moments away, as is the Osgood subway station.
In this urban hub,
Picasso on Richmond will introduce architectural innovation with its avant-garde exterior. Governor General Award-winning Teeple Architects created the edgy design, which is anchored by a 10-storey podium. High-end retail and commercial spaces at the pedestrian level will animate interaction with the streetscape on Richmond. From this attractive base, the tower will rise in a series of white cubic volumes projecting living areas over Richmond, Beverly and Widmer. Adding visual drama, a dramatic red cut will wind around the perimeter of each building face.
Interiors are by the internationally acclaimed interior design firm UNION31. Suite owners and their guests will appreciate attentive 24 hour concierge provided from the stunning open-air lobby. A highlight of the condominium, the PICASSO CLUB features a wealth of amazing amenities. The “Picasso” special occasion/party room has a caterer’s kitchen and bar. For the ultimate entertaining potential, this area opens out onto a spacious private terrace with barbecue facilities, an outdoor hot tub, fireplace, cabanas and lounge chairs.
The PICASSO CLUB will also house the “Cue Lounge” that will have a billiards table and TV, and is conveniently situated adjacent to the party room. “Pulse” is the name of the club’s dynamic fitness room, where residents will be able to keep in shape with the cardio, yoga and aerobics area, and commercial-grade fitness equipment. For relaxation, a dry sauna is located in separate men’s and ladies’ change rooms. Rounding out the amenities, a designer-decorated guest suite is handy for overnight visitors.
Luxurious suite features and finishes include 8’ to 10’ ceiling heights (depending on the floor) and laminate flooring. Dream kitchens include extended-height upper cabinets; brand-name, built-in stainless steel appliances; under-cabinet valance lighting; the choice of quartz, granite or Caesarstone countertop; porcelain, ceramic or glass backsplash; pantries and extended breakfast bars on islands – all as per plan. In the bathrooms, porcelain flooring is elegant underfoot, and the cultured marble vanity countertop features a contemporary integrated sink.
Picasso on Richmond is also fitted with green elements that save on energy and water conservation and improve air quality. Suite owners will have individually controlled hydro, heating and air-conditioning which will allow them to control over their usage and energy costs. ENERGY STAR®-rated appliances such as the dishwasher and refrigerator also save on energy use and costs. On a larger scale, the building has an eco-friendly green roof system to reduce the urban heat-island effect, and residents will be able to access a car-share program.
