Southcore Financial Centre - Toronto
Southcore Financial Centre, is a mixed use development south of the railway, and Union Station in downtown Toronto. It is a combination of office, hotel and retail uses on the Bremner Blvd Gateway between the Air Canada Centre and the Rogers Centre-(aka Skydome), CN Tower, and coming soon the new Ripleys Aquarium featuring Shark Tanks! Ya!
The Hotel will be a Delta, which will compliment their location further north at Yonge and Gerrard, and the office towers have signed big name Legal and Accounting firms as key tenants. Namely Price Waterhouse Coopers at 18 York. Bremner Tower is still under construction, along with the Delta Hotel Tower.

Toronto, 2010 — British
Columbia Investment Management Corporation (bcIMC) today announced
the completion and initiation of significant phases in the development
of Southcore Financial Centre (SFC) with the topping-off ceremony of
the PwC Tower
and a groundbreaking event for another office tower and the new flagship
Delta
Toronto hotel.
The 650,000 sq. ft. PwC Tower at 18 York Street will
be headquarters to PwC, a leading accounting and consulting firm, and is
scheduled for occupancy in fall 2011. The placing of the final beam on the
rooftop of the PwC
Tower concludes SFC’s first phase of development, involving 542
construction days and a dedicated effort by the EllisDon construction team.
Following the topping-off event, a groundbreaking ceremony launches SFC’s second phase of development: a second office
building — the 30-storey, 700,000 sq. ft. Bremner Tower — and the 45-storey Delta
Toronto – a next-generation, premium four-star hotel.
“Today’s topping off ceremony and groundbreaking event are important
milestones in our commitment to Toronto’s emerging southcore district,
and
the partnerships with the companies that will soon occupy the premises,”
said Chuck Swanson, Vice President, Real Estate, bcIMC. “With this
project, bcIMC is advancing the development of sustainable office space
designed
to benefit tenants and their employees, the local community and the
environment.”
Encompassing a full block from York Street

SFC complex will be built to a high level of sustainability
with PwC Tower and Bremner Tower targeting LEED® Gold certification.

Getting a Mortgage and Mortgage Insurance through BMO Insurance for financing a loan to purchase at FIVE Condos is actually a relatively easy process, and new rules from the federal government has required that company include new regulations, which have made the home loan and mortgage process a bit more difficult. Those changes at BMO Insurance include shortening the amortization period for which the loan can be held by the consumer, and the degree to which the property is financed by the mortgage. They have also increased deposit requirements to lift the loan insurance amount. Mortgage insurance from BMO Insurance is actually one of the major financing costs on home loans.
