Menkes was the GTA's top highrise builder in 2013, according to a building industry report released early this year.

Menkes units represented nearly one out of every 10 of new condos sold according to the 2013 Strategic Review of the GTA's housing market from RealNet Canada Inc. and the Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD).

Menkes' Harbour Plaza Residences was the GTA condominium market's top selling site of 2013 with 858 units in both towers. Its 365 Church condo was the fourth best-selling condo site, with 311 sales.  Other Menkes projects last year included 87 Peter, Fabrik, Pears on the Avenue and Gibson Square.

It is also builder of the recently completed five-star Four Seasons Hotel & Private Residences in Bloor-Yorkville, that offers upscale condominium living in towers adjoining the luxury hotel.

Alan Menkes, president, highrise residential for Menkes, says distinctive locations, iconic architecture and design, and smart pricing were the drivers behind the successful sales of its condo units.

Menkes Developments Ltd. is one of the largest private Canadian developers of residential, industrial and office properties. Menkes is one of the leading home builders in the Greater Toronto Area, with over 20,000 units to its credit, including single-family and condominium residences.
