A Closer Look at Urban Capital Developments
Urban Capital have a very unique philosophy when it comes to condominiums and urban living. The developer’s Toronto CV includes River City, Tableau, Boutique Condominiums, Nicholas Condominiums, Camden Lofts and Charlotte Lofts and are known for their high design and focus on urban living.
River City Boasts a number of Design Awards including “Best Design of the Year” by BILD for River City 1
1. Forward Thinking and Award Winning Designs
Urban Capital have a reputation for creating high design buildings that look great from the outside and are extremely functional on the inside. Award winning designs at River City and universally praised Tableau have helped put the developer on the map.
WE BELIEVE THAT OUR LIVING SPACES SHOULD BE LIKE OUR CLIENTS: INTERESTING. IMPECCABLE. A LITTLE UNUSUAL. EXCITING YET PRACTICAL. AND CERTAINLY NEVER BORING.
The developers say that their work has pushed the envelope or pioneered in one way or another, be it in terms of urban location, high-end yet functional design, or green living with a focus on new architectural approaches, new interior features and layouts, and new environmental measures.
2. Focus on Urban Living
Urban Capital are not just experienced in Toronto. The developer has projects in a number of major urban centers in Canada including Montreal, Winnipeg, Halifax and they all focus on urban living.

As the City grows, the developer believes that a focus on “cubic footage” (using the space up to the ceiling) is more important than “square footage” as spaces get smaller and more efficient.
By focusing on cubic footage the developer is able to add efficiencies that would otherwise be overlooked (such as an increased emphasis on closet organizers, kitchen counters and wine racks etc.)
3. At the Forefront
David Wex describes Urban Capital as a “trail blazer”. They are not afraid to try something new and points to his first condominium project in Toronto (Camden Lofts) as an example. The project was built in 1996 in a hollowed out Fashion District long before it was what it is today. Charlotte Lofts was one of the first popular condominium in the Entertainment District with a big focus on design focused urban living.
Today, both Fashion District and Entertainment District are among the most popular areas to live in Toronto.
4. Excellent Track Record
Boutique Condominiums (21 Nelson and 126 Simcoe) are among the best appreciating condominiums in the City with annual appreciation rates pushing 10% per year. Rental demand remains high with rental rates over over $3.000 per square foot (over 10% higher than the Toronto average of $2.69 per square foot).
Boutique Condominiums are highly popular for both resale and rentals in Toronto
