When I first saw the site—nine acres on the waterfront in downtown Toronto waiting to be developed—I was blown away. It was so special. I could not resist it. I do not think there is anything like it in the world. Within the next three years I am hoping to build another hotel on the site, similar in size to Hotel X Toronto.

My dream was to bring a world class attraction to a world class city— an accessible 60-minute drive for 10 million residents, with millions more visitors a year. After a rigorous search, we found the perfect home to invest in, right in the heart of downtown Toronto at Yonge and Dundas. [This is] the multi-cultural intersection of Canada and steps from the biggest resident and tourist markets in the country. The perfect place to evoke a sense of wonder, curiosity, and connection to Canada.”
