The Aura is a residential building in Toronto ( Canada ) which, in addition to a classic residential complex, also includes a shopping center, gyms, bars and other facilities. The building is located at 388 Yonge Street and Gerrard Street, Toronto. Construction began in April 2010 and was completed in November 2014.
history
At the beginning of the construction planning, two skyscrapers were planned on a ten-story podium. The taller skyscraper should have 60 floors including a podium and a height of 196.5 meters, the smaller tower a height of 74.5 meters with 20 floors.
However, the project was changed so that only a 75-story tower should be built on the podium. In February 2012, the City of Toronto approved three more floors for the construction project. This made the building with 78 floors the tallest residential building in Canada.
architecture
With 985 suites, the building has a living space of around 102,000 m². In addition, there is 17,600 m² of retail space in the ten-story base of the building with shops, wellness and fitness studios, as well as bars and restaurants.
