Green medical centre coming to North Toronto

North Toronto is getting a new (and green) medical centre, known as University Heights. The eight-storey, 165,000-square-foot facility will be built to Toronto Green Standard’s Tier 2 qualifications, featuring 7,100 square feet of green roof space, high reflecting materials, indigenous landscaping, energy efficient controls and low-impact mechanical features.

The project will include retail space on its lower levels, with professional and medical offices on the upper levels. The building will also contain 89 customizable, divisible and expandable office units ranging from 550 to 2,500 square feet.

The facility will be located close to Yorkdale Shopping Centre, the new Humber River Regional Hospital, Downsview Park, York University, and the future location of the Finch West TTC subway and LRT station. Developers hope that the project will play an important role in the revitalization of the Finch West neighbourhood.

"We like to think that a big idea like University Heights is helping to lead regeneration in the Downsview Corridor," says Paolo Abate of University Heights Professional and Medical Centre. "The value for tenants of University Heights is that it’s situated in close proximity to the Yorkdale Shopping Centre, Downsview Park, York University and four hospitals, including the new Humber River Regional Hospital."
