About York Gardens

- 399 units
- 21 storeys
- Built 1970 by Henry Farm
- Townhouse
York Gardens is a residential development in the Henry Farm community of North York. Built in 1970, the project contains 399 units across 21 storeys.
The complex integrates high-rise density with low-rise townhouse elements. This architectural approach is characteristic of the modernist urban planning found in the Parkway Forest area during the 1970s.
The concrete-framed construction reflects the era's focus on functionalism and the creation of self-contained residential pockets. It remains a high-density living option within a mature suburban context.
Suite Sizes & Value
Units at York Gardens typically offer larger floor plans than contemporary condominium developments. These proportions were a standard feature of the era, catering to residents who prioritize interior living space.
The building serves as a functional alternative to modern glass-and-steel towers. It emphasizes utility and volume in a transit-oriented neighbourhood.
