Intensification of Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood has brought countless full time residents to the primarily shopping district. Among the newest residential additions to the neighbourhood, Camrost-Felcorp's Cumberland at Yorkville Plaza will add 40 storeys of new life to what is already one of Toronto's most walkable, vibrant areas.

The WZMH Architects-designed condominium tower will rise to the immediate south of the the former Four Seasons Hotel at Avenue and Yorkville, currently being converted into a condominium building. At ground level, Cumberland at Yorkville Plaza will feature a porte cochere framed by a waterfall and limestone walls, as well as sculpture. Inside the building residents will find a gallery-style ground floor with lobby offering 24-hour concierge and valet services.
