Starlight Developments is redeveloping 555 The West Mall in Etobicoke, ON with one new 21-storey-rental apartment building. In line with Starlight Developments’ commitment to improving resident quality of life, the redevelopment will also add features such as new shared indoor and outdoor amenity spaces, landscaping features, pedestrian connections, new bicycle parking and underground parking- all available to new and existing residents.
As part of this proposed redevelopment, the existing 14-storey building on site would remain and the new 21-storey rental apartment building would be built in the northern part of the property.
Through this website, we invite you to learn more about the project and share with us your questions and feedback. We look forward to hearing from you.
