A project of The Conservatory Group, The Milan Condominium complex was designed by E.I. Richmond Architects Ltd. of Toronto.

The project website shows that suites with a variety of different sizes and floorplans are still available. There are two 1-bedroom layouts, including the 577-square-foot Bergamo and the 626-square-foot LaScala; three 1-bedroom + den, including the 643-square-foot Naples, the 652-square-foot Bellini, and the 682-square foot Torino; five 2-bedrooms, ranging from the 777-square -foot Venice to the 907-square-foot Verona; five 2-bedroom + den that vary in size from the 802-square-foot Capri to the spacious 1,319-square-foot Donatello; and only one 3-bedroom configuration, the 1,192-square-foot Pavarotti.

Below is a tower rendering plus a series of photos showing construction progress over the past six months.

March 18 2012: Over the winter, workers have made great strides in building the underground levels …

 

… and the progress is most noticeable on the east side, along the subway line …

 

… but from the southeast, on Church Street, the big white crane is the only clearly visible sign of the construction underway

… the construction appears to have reached street level, as suggested by its proximity to the hoarding along the Church Street sidewalk (left)

 

April 28 2012: But workers still have one more level to build before they rise above grade …

 

… as can be seen in this peek through the fence at the southeast corner of the site

May 6 2012: Looking north from Church Street. In another week or two, the construction workers will be visible from this sightline.

 

May 6 2012: Construction at the southeast side of the property is about 1 meter below grade. The wood hoarding separates the construction zone from a small city park next door to the east.

 

May 6 2012: From the east, it looks like the entire site is now filled in …

 

… but considerable work remains to be done near the center of the site
