Victoria Park Life (588-600 Queen St S) | 11 fl | Proposed
#58
And this project is alive! It's now Victoria Park Life, and it's going to be a seniors-focused condo building. Developer is Lifewise, the company behind Harbourlife in Hamilton, and they have a few other similar projects in the pipeline.

Still 11 floors, 191 studio and one-bedroom units, ranging from 300 to 550 sqft, with a lot of amenities ("a Bar style entertainment room, craft kitchen, games room, gathering spaces, activity room, women’s and men's lounges, billiard room, gym, yoga room, pharmacy, nurse and station and option for spa and health care and group excursions"). Health screening for all staff and visitors on each entry, wearable health monitors (with a monitoring system), individual ventilation systems in each unit and tablets for family communication.

"80 is the new 60", they say -- well, maybe, but I do think they are targeting an underserved demographic, of seniors who want to live in a nice place with facilities and services, rather than a house or long-term care.

The renders are pretty much what we have seen before, it's the characteristics of the building that have changed.
