The Pickering skyline is changing! Construction on the first tower of VuPoint Condos, a significant project by Tribute Communities, is making impressive progress. Rising alongside Highway 401, just west of Liverpool Road, this 46-storey building is a testament to the continued growth and development happening beyond Toronto’s core.
Designed by Arcadis, VuPoint Condos is more than just one building; it’s the initial phase of a three-tower community strategically located northwest of the Pickering GO station. This accessibility makes it a particularly attractive option for commuters and those seeking a blend of urban convenience and suburban living. The full development is slated to deliver a substantial 1,779 condominium units, contributing significantly to the GTA’s housing supply.
Recent observations show the first tower has reached 16 storeys, with construction actively progressing on the exterior. The podium levels are largely complete, showcasing a modern aesthetic with dark glazing, black mullions, and white cladding panels. The construction hoist is now mounted on the west elevation, indicating the focus has shifted to completing the tower’s upper levels. This marks a significant step forward since excavation began in early 2024.
The completed first tower will stand at an impressive 151.15 meters. Future phases include even taller structures, with the second and third towers planned to reach 160.6 meters and 172.1 meters, respectively. This ambitious project underscores the ongoing demand for condominium living in the GTA, even as developers explore opportunities in areas like Pickering.
VuPoint Condos represents a key development in Pickering’s growth trajectory, offering new housing options and contributing to the area’s evolving urban landscape. Its proximity to transit, combined with the promise of a vibrant community, makes it a project worth watching for anyone interested in the future of the GTA real estate market.
