Bazis International unveils plans for Canada's most celebrated corner

TORONTO, March 22 /CNW/ - Bazis International of Toronto, Ont., will
unveil its plans to redevelop Canada's most important corner at a news
conference Thursday, April 5, 2007.

Bazis International has acquired a one-acre property on the southeast
corner of Yonge and Bloor Streets in the heart of Toronto. It will create an
innovative mixed use development featuring a nearly 80 storey tower with a
four storey double-height podium at the base making it Toronto's tallest
residential/commercial building.

Michael Gold together with celebrated Toronto architect, Roy Varacalli,
both of Bazis, will offer details and be available for interviews as will City
Councillor Kyle Rae.

The news conference will be held in the Panorama Room on the top of the
nearby ManuLife Centre, a vantage point that offers a bird's eye view not only
of the 1 Bloor site but also of Bazis' first Toronto project, the Crystal Blu
condominium, soon to start construction on Balmuto Street just south of Bloor.
