Matt’s Market Minute: New Density in the Heart of Edgemont
A new 9-unit boutique project is proposed for Queens Road. Here is what it means for Edgemont Village residents.
The evolution of Edgemont Village continues. A new proposal at 1050 West Queens Road (Newmarket & Queens) highlights a growing trend on the North Shore: the "Missing Middle."
What You Need to Know:
Boutique Scale: Only 9 units, keeping the "Village" feel intact.
Family-Sized: The plan includes 3-bedroom layouts, a rarity in new builds.
Modern Efficiency: Built to Step 3 Energy Code standards.
Rooftop Living: A shared 495 sq/ft outdoor space for residents.
My Take: This isn't just another condo building. By focusing on larger, accessible units with elevator access, this project targets the local "downsizer" who wants to stay in Edgemont but move away from yard work. It adds much-needed housing variety without the scale of a high-rise.
The Full Story: I’ve posted the full technical specs, FSR details, and architectural goals over on our team site. [Link to realestatenorthshore.com post]
