Description
If you are looking for a luxury condominium in a quaint and charming neighbourhood, you have come to the right place. This condo project is a new high-rise by Diamante Investments and is located at 108 James Street North in Hamilton. This stunning, mixed-use condominium will reach 22-storeys high and will offer 106 residential units.
This bold, new tower will be sure to stand out as most of the buildings on James Street are 3 to 6-storeys high. One of the unique features of this development is the re-development of the Tivoli Theatre that will be connected to the tower.
The Tivoli Theatre is 145 years old and is known as a historical landmark in Hamilton. Built in 1875, the site was first used a carriage factory before it became a theatre in 1908. Diamante understands the historical value the theatre brings to the community and is committed to restoring and preserving it while incorporating the residential tower.
The first three floors of the tower will be a podium designated for commercial use while the remaining nineteen floors will be dedicated for residential units. The first floor is proposed to have a cafe and bar while the second floor may incorporate a restaurant, gallery and events room. Commercial office space will be available as well, creating new jobs in the area. Modern amenities will be available including a fitness centre, indoor recreational space and a rooftop terrace at the top of the podium.
The tower’s design will complement the historic Tivoli Theatre and will feature a contemporary design with large glass windows and balconies. The entrance of the tower will mimic the entrance of the old theatre, hints of blue and red throughout the exterior will give the building a modern look. The views in the suites will overlook Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment. The suites will vary in style and size to suite many buyers and their lifestyles.
