Overview
Rising 22 stories, AKRA offers residences from studios to three-bedroom apartments that support a more focused and meaningful lifestyle. Human-scaled smart design and tech enablement remove obstacles to ease of living, and well-curated amenities are intentionally chosen to impart balance and health. The experience here is sensorial; this lifestyle is not a commodity. Superfluous elements are stripped away, allowing the senses to engage fully.
Project Features
A dedicated wellness centre on the 7th floor features exceptional programming to optimize health benefits, including a meditative outdoor terrace and water treatments.
The sprawling amenity space features infrared saunas with chromotherapy, red light therapy, and halotherapy. Numerous health benefits are associated with infrared saunas, including improving blood flow and muscle recovery, supporting the lymphatic and central nervous systems, and improving mood.
Communal SpacesThe common areas emphasize natural materials and indirect lighting to maintain balance and calm. Layered textures add intrigue to the spaces, where comfortable soft seating is available for meeting with friends, relaxing, or meditating.
An expansive community garden features lush, abundant landscaping, including medicinal plants and herbs for use and consumption by residents.
Location
Several outdoor activities and green spaces are within easy walking distance of the building, including the Redpath Avenue Community Parkette directly across the street and the Beltline Hiking and Biking Trail. The neighbouring Community Centre features indoor and outdoor skating rinks, swimming facilities, and basketball courts.
AKRA stands in the cross-section of three major Toronto Parks: Eglinton Park, Sherwood Park, and Blythwood Ravine Park, which are perfect for spending rejuvenating time in nature. As the beating heart of the new city, this rapidly developing neighbourhood is home to vibrant murals by local artists, a diverse mix of cuisines, cosy wine bars, independent shops and boutiques, mom-and-pop shops, and high-end grocery stores, including Whole Foods, Farmboy, Summerhill Market, and Stock TC Grover.
