Condos Kick-Start Cloverdale Mall Reboot

H Mart's Flagship Canadian Store to Anchor M2M Condos

Cloverdale Mall was built in 1956 as an open plaza in Etobicoke. In the 1980s, it was converted into an enclosed mall, undertaking major renovations in 2006. Soon, it will take on a different life as a 32-acre shopping centre, with a vibrant, sustainable, and innovative mixed-use urban community.

The latest chapter of QuadReal’s project is that Mattamy Homes will develop condos on a standalone 2.3-acre site at 2 and 10 The East Mall Crescent. A 32-storey tower and an 8-storey mid-rise will total 500-plus condos and 2,400 square feet of retail.

Mattamy will acquire a partial interest in the site and will be the execution partner for development, construction, and sales and marketing for the condo project. QuadReal will maintain long-term ownership of the retail and purpose-built rental components. David Stewart, president of Mattamy Homes GTA Urban Division, said QuadReal is a key partner in the company’s plan to deliver 13,000 condo sales within the next five years. 1

Aoyuan International’s upcoming M2M mixed-use community of nearly nine acres in North York will welcome Asian supermarket H Mart as its anchor tenant.

The Toronto outpost of the world’s largest Korean-American supermarket chain will span 36,000 square feet and offer authentic Asian and international groceries. H Mart, which stands for Han Ah Reum, a Korean phrase meaning “one arm full of groceries,” will be stocked with products that are difficult to find at more conventional stores. This will also be H Mart’s flagship Canadian location.

Plans are unfolding for M2M’s five residential towers, a community centre, public park and a daycare. Fan Yang, general manager of Aoyuan Canada, says he’s thrilled to be welcoming H Mart to the site. “We are seeing increasing demand for cultural diversity in retail, and M2M is a very diverse community,” he says. “This flagship location will offer fresh produce, multicultural goods, and authentic ready-to-eat meals. 1

Expertise. Insight. Trust.

Having the technical expertise and insight to conduct retrofit projects in established buildings without affecting the day-to-day business of occupants is our specialty. It’s what sets us apart.

The truth is, existing buildings are far more complex and challenging than new construction, and require a unique game plan every time. It’s why the process for delivering mechanical and electrical engineering solutions requires more than a cookie cutter approach – it demands that you have a deep insight into the building and how new systems can be integrated into existing systems seamlessly. All of our projects are reviewed by senior engineers, each with over 25 years of experience in their respective fields, ensuring that our clients always receive engineering services of the highest quality.
