Posted on | buzzhomeblog Posted in BUZZTALK, DEVELOPMENTS, MARKET, ONTARIO | Leave a comment

This week in BuzzTalk, we’re buzzing with Jared Menkes, a young development manager at the well-known and highly regarded Menkes Developments.

When it comes to the development industry in Toronto, it’s hard to think of a bigger name than Menkes. The family-owned company does everything, from condos to single family homes to commercial real estate.

The first Menkes residential project that Jared spearheaded was Pears on the Avenue, the 20 storey Yorkville meets Annex project that’s currently under construction on Avenue Road, north of Bloor. Jared is currently hard at work on Fabrik, the new condo development at Queen and Spadina. Read more

Action shots galore! All new pics from the Gibson Square construction site in North York

Posted on | buzzhomeblog Posted in DEVELOPMENTS, ONTARIO | 1 Comment

When it comes to construction, the folks over at Menkes Developments don’t waste any time.

We posted photos of the Gibson Square construction site up in North York only two months ago, but because so much progress has been made since then, it seemed like more photos were in order! Last week we roadtripped up to the site on Yonge Street between Sheppard and Finch to get a full tour courtesy of the project manager, Guy Belanger.

It was a chilly December afternoon and the wind was pretty fierce, but the elements didn’t appear to have any effect on the pace of work at the site. Cranes were in full swing, trucks were mixing cement; it was truly an action packed day at the job site.

We’ll get down to business in a moment, but first let’s do a quick backgrounder on this project just so you have all the context you need.

The project is comprised of twin 42 storey towers and is situated right across the street from North York City Centre (TTC access, aww yeaa). Available suites start at $345,990 and range in size from 514 to 1288 square feet. But of course, you can read all this and more on our project page so let’s get on to the main event! Read more
