Oshawa, ON - The 2022 City of Oshawa Urban Design Awards were recently awarded and we are pleased to share that Podium Developments has received an “Award of Excellence” for the University Towns project at 1800 Simcoe St North in Oshawa. University Towns joins the Taylorwood as Podium’s second City of Oshawa Urban Design Award.
University Towns is a mixed-use development, encompassing multiple buildings, 170 units, 6,000sf of commercial and amenities over a 3.0 acre site. Formerly a parking lot serving Ontario Tech University and Durham College, University Towns combined stacked condominium townhouse units as well as a four-storey apartment building to augment the redevelopment of the Simcoe Street North corridor near the post-secondary schools, providing complimentary urban life and housing nearby. Itis an honour to contribute to the City of Oshawa and provide innovative, much needed housing for their students and young professionals.
