Transit is an important factor in spurring intensification, with new developments being built in growing numbers on or around existing transit infrastructure. Rapid transit lines like the Sheppard subway have been instrumental in attracting large-scale redevelopment projects, though intermediate capacity lines like the dedicated streetcar right of way on St. Clair Avenue West are also triggering growth. On St. Clair west of Avenue Road, Madison Homes and Fieldgate Homes' ZIGG Condos will be a notable addition to the neighbourhood, bringing increased density to a block currently occupied by single-family homes.
The 11-storey, Kirkor Architects-designed development is offering 166 condominium units ranging in size from 500 square feet up to 1,776 square feet, available in one, two, three-bedroom and townhome plans. Units will include features like 9 foot ceiling heights and floor-to-ceiling windows, and prospective buyers can get a taste of the interiors by checking out a 3D virtual suite tour on the ZIGG website.
In addition to the convenient neighbourhood amenity residents will find in transit accessibility, residents will also enjoy a collection of amenity offerings, appointed by The Design Agency. Several of these spaces will be located on the building's ground floor, including a dining room with kitchen and suspended fireplace, a private fitness centre, a multi-purpose party room with lounge seating, a bar, billiard table, and large-screen TVs.
Residents at ZIGG will also have access to a rooftop amenity terrace featuring barbecues and dining areas, sitting/lounging areas, a fireplace, an indoor bar, and impressive views of downtown.
