Daniels was chosen to partner with Toronto Community Housing to revitalize Regent Park – 69-acres in the heart of Toronto’s downtown. Daniels shares Toronto Community Housing’s vision of creating a healthy, sustainable community and is bringing new vitality to the whole of Toronto’s Downtown East neighbourhood.
Daniels partnered with Artscape, Toronto Community Housing and members of the local community to develop an innovative 60,000 sq. ft. cultural hub in Regent Park. The centre has been named Daniels Spectrum in appreciation of a $4 million lead gift from The Daniels Corporation and the John and Myrna Daniels Charitable Foundation. Daniels Spectrum is a platform for cultural exchange and collaboration, and is the newest addition to downtown Toronto’s thriving cultural landscape. Daniels partnered with renowned filmmaker Ivan Reitman to build TIFF Bell Lightbox, the new home of the Toronto International Film Festival. Festival Tower, an elegant residential tower, rises above TIFF Bell Lightbox – an international destination celebrating the world of film 52 weeks a year. Daniels was the first developer to build rental housing in over 20 years through its innovative Gateway Rental Communities program. Daniels Gateway now offers 28 great rental communities across the GTA. Daniels has built a selection of FirstHome™ Communities throughout the GTA, designed to offer quality-built residences priced within the reach of first-time buyers. Daniels FirstHome™ Erin Mills was the largest Energy Star® community built in North America. With the health and environmental aspects of eating locally grown food, as well as the continuation of our commitment to provide our homeowners with amenities that inspire their engagement in the community, Daniels has been a pioneer in the building industry, incorporating urban agriculture opportunities such as gardening plots, edible landscaping and greenhouses into our new home communities, wherever possible. Most recently, we were instrumental in launching farmers’ markets in Erin Mills and Regent Park. Daniels has built a portfolio of state-of-the-art condominium and rental retirement residences in a continuing joint venture with Amica Mature Lifestyles™ Inc. Daniels' corporate philosophy embraces financial and hands-on generosity toward a number of charities and non-profit organizations such as the Regent Park School of Music, Second Harvest, Eva’s Initiatives and Habitat for Humanity. |
