\nNew York has Fifth Avenue. Los Angeles has Rodeo Drive. In Toronto, the most chic shopping centerpointe is in Yorkville on Bloor Street, affectionately known as The Mink Mile. And at the very heart of this elegant stretch of shopping and entertainment lies <\/span><\/span>The Colonnade<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span>, a <\/span><\/span>Morguard<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span> community. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\nA Historic Past <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\nThe Colonnade was originally erected in 1963 as the first mixed-use development in Canada. The building’s design by architect Gerald Robinson was influenced by the popular Brutalist movement of the 1950s and 60s, and features large areas of exposed concrete and a mix of block patterns and sweeping Gothic curves. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Shops Below<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
