138 Yorkville Celebrates Feature in Architectural Digest’s AD100, 2025 Edition

138 Yorkville celebrates a notable feature in the January issue of AD100 at the project’s presentation gallery in Yorkville.

For a behind-the-scenes glimpse into what will become the crown jewel of the north, Architectural Digest’s Global Features Director, Sam Cochran, hosted a fireside chat with several of the project’s visionaries, including our very own Peter Politis, CEO of Greybrook; Brian Brisbin, Partner at Brisbin Brook Beynon Architects; and Alessandro Munge, Founder and Principal of interior design firm Studio Munge. The conversation delved into the bold vision behind Canada’s first ultra-luxury residence, its groundbreaking design, and the transformative impact it will have on Toronto’s skyline.

The discussion centered around how the meticulously crafted residence will be unlike anything Toronto, and Canada, have seen. Designed as a sanctuary that goes beyond the current notions of home, it offers an incontrovertible sense of luxury in living. Cascading skyward villas, adorned with over 120 specialized trees, a limestone and bronze metal façade reminiscent of fine art, and expansive curved windows seamlessly converge to create a truly unrivalled masterpiece. Here, architectural precision and timeless interiors blend to offer an extraordinary and unmatched experience of sophistication and elegance.

CEO, Peter Politis echoed this vision, sharing with Architectural Digest:

“With an unwavering focus on elegance, craftsmanship, and exceptional white-glove service, we’ve created a living experience that rivals the finest developments across the globe. This bespoke residence will stand as a beacon of refinement and opulence, signifying Toronto’s ascent on the global stage as a world-class city and attracting residents who seek the highest level of luxury.”
