Falcon Towers continues rejuvenation trend on 104th Street

A former gravel parking lot on 104th Street on the south side of Jasper Avenue will soon be transformed into a distinctive Manhattan-style, twinned residential tower development.
Aptly named Falcon, the twin towers will rise 38 and 43 storeys above a two-storey podium level filled with retail and commercial offerings. The creative juice behind the project, Langham Developments, is also the force behind 104th Street’s swanky 15-year-long rejuvenation, spurred on by the infusion of four architecturally significant residential towers — Icon Tower I and II, and Fox I and II.
“We’ve done a lot of projects along 104th Street, so Falcon was a natural evolution. While the other projects were located on the busier, north side of Jasper Avenue, Falcon is located in the more quaint and quiet, south part of the street, which overlooks the river valley,” says Langham’s president and founder, Reza Mostashari.
The location, within walking distance of Rogers Place, the downtown night scene, the 104th Street farmers’ market and the Bay Enterprise Square LRT station, should create a buzz for those wanting a walkable downtown lifestyle.
