St Gabriel Terraces are situated along Sheppard Ave East of Baview avenue and are part of a larger development know as St Gabriel Village. It includes 2-19 storey buildings with a 12 sto- rey podium, as well as 3storey townhouses facing the residential neighbourhood to the north. The St. Gabriel Terraces provide a street edge for the development and contribute to the development of Sheppard avenue East. The retail space at grade enhances the streetscape and provides visual interest for pedestrians. The building steps back at the 7th floor to create terraces with views of the city. The long south elevation provides an ideal location for solar panels, used to reduce the building’s energy consumption.
