Description

The York Square project, in the Yorkville Village neighborhood of Toronto, was an urban infill development which revitalized old commercial buildings in an established neighborhood into a new space for restaurants and cafes to coalesce around a new courtyard space.. Myers and Diamond repurposed existing buildings to maintain the neighborhood style, while adding graphics and a new facade to the newly renovated building complex.
