This morning, Waterfront Toronto announced the long-awaited details of the 2015 Pan Am Games athletes’ village. The project, when complete, will transform a formerly fallow section of Toronto’s waterfront west of the Don Valley Expressway, known as the West Don Lands.
A press release about the project, posted online this afternoon, pegs the gross cost to the province at $514 million. The contractor is Dundee Kilmer Developments. After the games are complete, the facilities will become a mixed-use neighbourhood, with an 82,000 square foot YMCA and a dormitory for George Brown students.
Torontoist will have more detailed coverage of the announcement soon. In the meantime, check out the renderings, above. A promotional video is embedded after the jump.
