Real Estate Developers in Markham Embrace New Suburban Vision – Advertorial
More than a decade ago, Markham City Council realized that it could no longer continue to accommodate growth by expanding farther into the countryside. The solution: a downtown Markham real estate development that would meet the municipality’s goal for greater density development while satisfying new provincial initiatives to curb urban sprawl and protect the natural environment. The Remington Group Inc’s ambitious Downtown Markham real estate project is the largest mixed-use development in North America. The $3 billion, 243 master planned community at Downtown Markham combines residential, retail, and commercial properties, all built to high environmental standards, and designed to reflect the sustainable development needs of the province of Ontario. It is s 20 year project with a long term vision of promoting sustainability, encouraging car-free, pedestrian-friendly urban living not previously seen in any North American suburb. Designed as a European inspired mixed-use community, Downtown Markham community the vibrant urban centre is built at a human scale that promotes car free travel, with all retail amenities, numerous parks, streams, and other green spaces located within easy walking distance. The mixed use community at Downtown Markham condo homes also sets the stage for increased economic development as Markham builds upon its reputation as a knowledge economy powerhouse. The real estate Markham development borrows heavily from successful urban settings around the world where square and parks complement animated streets and where Downtown Markham townhomes and condos reside in harmony with corporate offices, stores and entertainment venues. The community of Downtown Markham will eventually become home to 9,500 residencts living in 3,900 new condominiums and townhouses. More than 16,000 people will work in approximately 4.2 million square feet of office space. Over time, Downtown Markham will grow into a lively city centre, defined by international stores and local shops, gourmet restaurants and intimate cafes, a variety of urban parks, entertainment, beautiful residences and state of the art commercial buildings all within a short stroll of each other. It will be one of Ontario’s top destinations to live, work and play. For more information visit www.downtownmarkham.com.
