A significant proposal has surfaced for 211 Jarvis Street in Toronto’s Garden District, where a 32-storey mixed-use rental tower is planned to rise behind the facades of seven 19th-century heritage rowhouses. Designed by Arcadis for Manga Hotels, the project aims to integrate modern density with historical preservation, delivering 315 rental units—including 38 replacement units—to a high-demand transit corridor.
The development, which features a 13.2 Floor Space Index, is strategically located within walking distance of the existing Yonge Line 1 and the upcoming Ontario Line 3. As Toronto’s downtown core continues to intensify, this project highlights the ongoing shift toward rental-focused development in the city’s historic pockets. With a mix of studio to three-bedroom-plus units and extensive indoor and outdoor amenity spaces, the proposal reflects the evolving needs of urban renters.
