Situated along the edge of the Don Valley at the corner of Broadview and O'Connor Avenues, this four-storey S-shaped residential care facility is the new home for the Sisters of St. Joseph of Toronto. The 96,000-sq.ft. building in the heart of the city is situated on an assemblage of lots adjacent to the heritage-designated 19th century Taylor House. The facility comprises 58 residential suites, a lobby, activity space, chapel, and five private hospital units. The Sisters of St. Joseph of Toronto wished for a new, smaller and greener urban home to decrease their operating costs and better suit their aging population. They wanted the new residence to foster their health and welfare and collective beliefs, and they wanted it to be closer to their ministries and outreach programs.
