Toronto development is currently defined by concrete-and-steel high-rise construction, but Hälsa at 230 Royal York Road stands out as a rare and sustainable alternative. A 9-storey purpose-built residential rental project rising in Mimico, Hälsa is being built using a prefabricated mass timber system. Designed by LWPAC Architects for Leader Lane Developments in partnership with Windmill Development Group, the mid-rise building is being assembled from robotically manufactured panels that are craned into place onsite. The project targets LEED Platinum certification and Tier 2 of the Toronto Green Standard. Located on the northwest corner at Drummond Street, the development just south of the Mimico GO station is part of Leader Lane’s Mimico Collection, a trio of mass timber infill buildings that seek to address Toronto’s housing crisis through more accessible and sustainable construction. …Once complete, Hälsa will rise 31.79m, delivering 60 new rental homes to South Etobicoke.
