FEBRUA RY 2016 | 77 The Madison shopper once a week. It changes the pattern of lifestyle in the area." Matthew Spironello, senior project manager at Tucker HiRise Construction Inc. says occupancy will begin in the summer of 2016. "The clients chose some very nice finishes in the common areas. The lobby was designed with a lot of attention to detail including unique stone flooring and walls that are 14- to 15-feet high," he notes. "The two outdoor terraces are great because they allow people to congregate in different locations instead of just one big area. One of the spaces on the fourth floor has chaise lounges for relaxing. The bar area in the party room is comfortable and a little bigger than what you would see in other buildings." Alessandro Munge, principal of Studio Munge, says the wellness and fitness centre has designated work- out areas, with the heavy exercise equipment located in the back, while the energizing open views are reserved for the treadmills on the lower level and spin bikes on the mezzanine. "The bi-level space was designed to truly support the health-conscious resident's active lifestyle," he explains. "It has wonderful volumes with the double-height ceilings brightened by the extended glass wall." Munge further explains the luxurious interior design details in the lobby. "While the communal terrace was conceived around the reflective water, we designed the spacious lobby with a much more earthy sophistication. Inspired by high-end fashion retail environments, the contemporary wood veneer panelling was selected with a warm olive tone and we have installed some rich marble surrounding the fireplace," Munge says. "The sleek columns in the room are fitted in high-gloss black metal panels enclosing smoky bronze mirrors." Adding intrigue to the building is the rooftop water feature. "Located at the heart of the complex, is an introspective Zen inspired garden," says Munge. "The shallow reflecting pool is paired with a majestic bronze sculpture and seating areas for quiet reflection." Everyone involved in The Madison project is seeing the regeneration of Yonge and Eglinton. "The area has always had a lot of rental buildings from the 1960s, so to put in a condominium, we have started to give something back to the public," says Butterworth. "With over 500 units, the population for the area will increase immediately creating a walkable pedestrian neighbourhood. We have widened the sidewalks to meet the design capabilities the city is looking for."
