Nestled next to North America’s largest protected urban park 27M Royal Oak - Rouge National Urban Park, the community’s 2,000 homes with Coach House are surrounded with natural public spaces and are intertwined with an abundance of local parks. Residents are nourished with lush green surroundings in a walkable neighbourhood integrated with all the necessary conveniences at their fingertips.

Cornell Rouge was founded on the principles of new urbanism, which at its core, represented a desire to return to a quality of life that had somehow been lost “in the traditional suburban setting.

Fronts of houses are full of windows and porches, instead of garage doors. The result is a house that is full of light, and a streetscape that is reminiscent of a quaint village. Being in Cornell Rouge can make you feel a sense of nostalgia for the past and an optimism for the future. DOUG DICKINSON B.E.S., B.ARCH. FBP ARCHITECTS INC. Cornell Rouge • 7 SINGLE DETACHED ARCHITECTURE 8 • Cornell Rouge Cornell Rouge • 9 The open concept floorplan maximizes every square inch of space and allows for easy entertaining. The modern simplistic custom kitchen cabinetry is a subtle backdrop to the pop of orange in the décor. SINGLE DETACHED This oversized Master Bedroom includes a seating area, built-in fireplace, high cathedral ceiling and double doors allowing in natural light. We decided to turn up the drama, with an oversized floral wallpaper print and deep colours. There are several factors that set Madison Group apart from other developers/builders, but the two that stand out are their attention to the architectural integrity of the building envelope as well as their attention to the interior detail when space planning – two or three dimensionally. “Cornell Rouge is a great example of Madison’s experience as a builder and their pride in the product they create and bring to the market. THERESA PEREIRA PRINCIPAL DESIGNER & FOUNDER CREATE DESIGN & CO. INC This open-to-above architectural detail allows for oversized picturesque windows. The luxurious stone fi replace is surrounded by burnished gold accents, balanced shades of greys and splashes of merlot. This master ensuite is complete with a spacious double vanity, drop-in bath tub and a frameless glass shower enclosure. For this space we selected light and simple fi nishes, cabinetry and plumbing fi xtures. We added interest in the already soothing monochromatic colour scheme through texture in the wallpaper. Ultimately, we achieved a spa-like oasis where one can retreat to and enjoy. Cornell Rouge • 11 ROYAL OAK 3,736 SQ.FT. Includes 631 sq.ft.

    WELLNESS. THE NEW LUXURY BY KYLEMORE We believe that discerning home buyers recognize that luxury is more than just a “what.” It is also a “where” and a “how”. It is an expectation that wellness be the focus of every aspect of the way their community is designed, and their home is made. Wellness is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life. It is a dynamic process of change and growth; a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being. Wellness is the truest form of luxury. LIVE. WELLNESS.

    December 20, 2017 Gradual But Perceptible Change Behind Top Canadian Retail, Shopping Centre Trends* Retail Landscape Transformed While Still Amid Strict Regulations Abstract: This article reviews major trends that are affecting retailers and shopping centres in Canada. Notably, it examines Millennials, a group similar to those in the U.S. in size and impact but different in life experiences. In addition, the report discusses pure-play retailers opening stores, store closures, luxury retail, changing consumer food expectations and tastes, experiential concepts and unconventional uses, pop-up stores, mixed-use centers, and environmental sustainability. 1) Store Closures/Openings: Canada Gets the Lite Version One notable recent exception to that trend: Sears Canada, Despite increased e-commerce activity in Canada (notably by which in October said it would seek court approval to liquidate all Amazon), a smaller market, less competition and a more stable of its remaining stores and assets.1 Aware of the company’s retail environment have resulted in the level and rate of closures in growing difficulties, shopping centre landlords had already the nation being lower than what is being experienced in the U.S. undertaken extensive analyses and preliminary preparations this year.

Already, many landlords have lined up large number of stores in America, have announced none or only new tenants to fill these vacancies. Redemising of the space will a few in Canada, often as a result of better sales performance. Lessons Learned Canadian shopping centre landlords and their tenants are experiencing many of the same changes that are remaking the industry elsewhere in North America, but the smaller size of the market and a stricter regulatory environment are, at least to some extent, limiting the full impact.

Implementation INTRODUCTION 1 INTRODUCTION What are Gateways This plan defines gateways as markers that indicate an entrance to, or exit from, the City as a whole, and to important neighbourhoods, districts, or other unique locations within Markham. Gateways can take many forms and consist of a variety of elements that provide different functions. Gateways can include but are not limited to the inclusion of public art and way finding elements. Gateways differ from the City’s existing entrance features in that each gateway location is located at a key concession, arterial road, and/or has an Official Plan and/or land use related policy designation, and generally receives high pedestrian and/or vehicular traffic flow. 1 INTRODUCTION Why Gateways Place Making Community • Raise awareness of Markham’s Attraction & history, culture, and areas of Development renewal and growth • Create strong sense of place and • Draw tourists, locals and talent geographical knowledge of • Playfulness and the beautification Markham’s many attributes of spaces encourages people to • To support these unique attributes stop and linger through place making that • Development through community influences urban character, urban engagement strengthens structure, built form and street neighbourhood relations
