In honour of Intern Day, meet some of the 2024 First Capital Intern Cohort! We are celebrating by speaking with some of them about their summer experience so far. FCR's Summer Internship Program is a valuable learning experience for many young professionals as all departments across several offices take the time to mentor their interns and provide them with real-world opportunities. Some notable features from the summer include: ⭐Weekly Power Hours The interns sit with members from different departments to learn about their respective roles at First Capital. ⭐Networking Opportunities FCR interns are invited to different CRE networking events throughout to expand their network growth beyond the office. ⭐CEO Capstone Project In teams, interns are tasked with real business challenges that affect First Capital and the real estate sector. At the end of the summer, the teams present their innovative solutions to the leadership team. ⭐Hands-On Experience The internship program allows students to become integral parts of their teams as they integrate into the day-to-day tasks and longer-term projects within their departments. Happy Intern day from everyone at First Capital! To learn more about the program, visit: https://lnkd.in/ga9D_HC9 #InternDay #NationalInternDay

Located in Liberty Village, one of Toronto's most vibrant neighbourhoods, is 1071 King Street West. Yesterday, July 23rd, we had our groundbreaking ceremony alongside our partners Hullmark, and Woodbourne Capital Management to kick-off construction. 1071 King West will create an iconic entry point into one Toronto's most dynamic and sought-after neighbourhoods. The project will feature a 17-storey residential tower with 298 rental units, and over 5,000 square feet of street-front retail space. The project also includes a new public park and a future connection to the West Toronto Railpath. Furthering FCR’s commitment to sustainability, the building will be heated and cooled using a geothermal system, and we are targeting net-zero carbon operations. Thank you to everyone involved on this project we're excited to bring this project to life and continue to grow the Liberty Village neighbourhood.

Another great achievement from the First Capital team!
The team at First Capital REIT achieved another entitlement milestone this week, contributing toward our density pipeline of approximately 24 million square feet. On Monday, the OLT issued a decision approving our Official Plan Amendment and Rezoning Application to permit the future redevelopment of 13 Neighbourhoods-designated properties situated within the Yonge-Eglinton Protected Major Transit Station Area with a 27-storey mixed-use tower comprising 353 units, including 10 affordable rental housing units. Situated along the north side Montgomery Avenue, between Yonge Street and Duplex Avenue, the site is located approximately 350 metres from Eglinton Subway Station on Line 1 and the soon-to-be-completed Eglinton Crosstown LRT. The proposal incorporates a pedestrian colonnade and will introduce several public realm improvements, including a widened pedestrian boulevard along Montgomery Avenue. The project will also benefit from a new public park planned for the south side of the street. A huge thank you to our project team! RAW Design Inc.
