Getting More for Your Condo Dollars
Investing in Paradigm Grand Condominium makes good financial sense now and for the future.During both good and bad financial times, real estate is one of the safest places to invest. After all, you can’t live in a GIC or a stock. Real estate also can earn ongoing income and serve as a long-term investment (or become your eventual home). That’s why it makes solid financial sense to purchase a unit at the Paradigm Grand, as a longer-term investment.
Fortune Favours the Bold
While the rate of inflation is down year-over-year, consumer borrowing rates – including mortgage costs – could inch upward again before they peak. This is either a time to sit on the sidelines or get in the game now, before rates rise again.
Investing in Our Future!
Construction continues at Paradigm Grand as we prepare for our forming contractors to begin pouring concrete. Robert Molinaro was on site recently and shares progress updates and insights about the positive economic impact of this master planned community’s Grand Finale!
Paradigm’s Architectural Inspiration
The Molinaro Group’s vision for Paradigm was made real through the talents and dedication of Berardo Graziani and his team at Graziani & Corazza Architects. In this segment, Berardo shares his insights about how Paradigm got its distinctive look, and why the development, now in its Grand Finale, stands as an iconic statement of confidence in Burlington’s future.
At Paradigm Grand You Can See for Miles and Miles
At Paradigm Grand You Can See for Miles and Miles Life on the Golden Horseshoe means wonderful vistas. One of our favourites is the view on a clear day of the Toronto waterfront skyline from Niagara-On-The-Lake. Anything that makes the Big Smoke look tiny, right? The view from the twin front towers of Paradigm Grand is about to rival any along the western shore of Lake Ontario, thanks to the vision of the Molinaro Group and their architect Barry Graziani. Maybe he was listening to The Who when he was doing his drawings. The legendary rock band’s hit “I Can See for Miles and Miles” is the perfect theme song for his vision of a structure with almost limitless sightlines toward the blue horizon. Barry and the Molinaro Group ensured that floor-to-ceiling windows be the standard for every unit so, you will see for miles and miles … and then some. Natural Light Matters and It’s Everywhere at Paradigm Grand An abundance of natural light ranks high on the wish list of most condo customers for good reason. The winter months in Canada can be unrelenting. A lack of adequate daylight isn’t just unhealthy for our physical well-being but it can take a severe mental toll as well. We are nothing if not sympathetic to the issue of cabin fever. That’s why every unit at Paradigm Grand features a wall of glass in the main living area. Consider it your front-row ticket to the evolving seasons. No need to turn on the TV or check your mobile device. The weather report is always right there in front of you. Vivid summer sunsets; the ever-shifting tones of blue, grey and silver during the winter, and the blazing, multi-coloured canopies of fall – you get them all right out your window. The location of Paradigm Grand’s two front towers will offer an unobstructed view of Burlington’s greatest asset – its lakefront. There are no other man-made structures to interfere – and won’t be any in the foreseeable future – because these are the tallest planned for the area at 22 stories. You can invest with confidence, knowing that a shutter won’t come down on your magnificent sightline. There’s nothing standing between your premium unit and the shoreline except parkland and low-rise residential neighbourhoods. Paradigm Grand’s amenities, including the all-season swimming pool, yoga studio and fully-equipped fitness center, also feature soaring glass windows and an ever-present flood of glorious light. It’s “a home run” says Managing Director Sam Di Santo, in the forefront of the project since the site was selected in 2007. “With Paradigm” he adds, “we were truly ahead of our time.” The Grand Finale is a Vision Fully Realized From Graziani’s standpoint, it’s a thrill is thrilled to see this final stage of his design coming to fruition. “The exciting part about the Grand Finale is that it starts to crystallize and finalize what we originally thought. The addition of the two, front towers create this courtyard; that almost becomes a little oasis, a sanctuary in this development. It starts to take on a life of its own. All of the residents will feel it’s part of their home.” Complementing the courtyard is the outdoor terrace of Paradigm Grand. A master stroke of humanistic design, this verdant expanse formally titled “Paradigm Park” soars seven stories above street level and spans the entire footprint. It’s divided into a fitness zone on one side and a separate leisure area with room to stroll, sprawl or just sit and contemplate the splendid view. As a fully-integrated feature, it’s an all-seasons escape where residents can meet and socialize in a spacious retreat or enjoy personal quiet time in the fresh air. It’s also totally in keeping with the Molinaro Group’s mission to create a lifestyle destination in the heart of a growing, mid-sized city. In the words of company President Vince Molinaro, “We’re not building condos we’re actually building lifestyles. We’re creating a better Burlington for people who live here and for people who want to live here.” The final stage of Paradigm Grand truly has it all. Light, air, sky. All you’ll need to do is just breathe. And gaze for miles and miles and miles and miles. Paradigm Grand – New
Molinaro Group – We Are Burlington
We Are Burlington “Molinaro Group is more than a company that happens to be located in Burlington. Burlington is a part of us. The city is in our blood.” Domenic Molinaro Founder, Molinaro Group A Long History of Building in Burlington Molinaro Group has been developing residential and commercial properties in Burlington for almost 25 years. Their buildings are an integral part of the downtown core and the waterfront. They’ve helped create the beautiful skyline that Burlington residents and visitors have come to recognize and appreciate. When Domenic Molinaro first came to Burlington downtown and waterfront were empty canvases. He had a vision for what the city could be. And he set out to realize that vision by developing truly beautiful and unique buildings. Vince Molinaro, President of the Molinaro Group, said, “When we first came here, there was nothing much going on in Burlington. My dad saw the vision. A lot of people didn’t.” Building a Livable City Burlington has always been known as a family-friendly city. That’s why Domenic chose to raise his family here. His children grew up, in part, working on construction sites around the city. And they initially raised their families in Burlington and the surrounding area. The rest of Canada knows how great Burlington is too. MoneySense magazine has repeatedly ranked Burlington as the #1 Canadian city to live in. “We would have to agree,” said Sam DiSanto, Managing Director, Molinaro Group. “And we’re glad to have played a role in helping to make Burlington such a great place to live.” Every property built by the Molinaro Group is recognizable and distinct to Burlington. They each have unique features and amenities that define their neighbourhoods. These buildings include: Spencer’s Landing Bunton’s Wharf The Baxter 360 on Pearl The Brock Illumina Paradigm Grand Working Together to Build Better Collaboration and cooperation are central tenets of how Molinaro Group does business. It takes the efforts of many people working together to successfully complete a development. This begins before the first shovel hits the ground. Molinaro Group engages with city councillors and ratepayers to ensure every development results in a win-win situation. They listen to all feedback when designing their buildings to create positive environments for residents and community members. For example, with Strata, the team at Molinaro Group engaged with local residents who wanted input on the look of the building. They worked for months to come up with a design that preserved the area’s vistas. In the end, they received a signed letter of approval from the resident committee. “We want the people of Burlington to view our buildings with as much pride as we do,” said Robert Molinaro, Executive Vice President. Supporting the City’s Economy and Communities Molinaro Group is committed to Burlington’s economic health and growth. Several years ago, they relocated their head office to the city. Setting up shop in the community means providing jobs—both directly and indirectly—to the people who live there. And they do business with other local businesses, which is good for the community and the economy. A city is more than its buildings. It consists of the people who live and work there. It depends on community amenities and spaces to make it livable. That’s why Molinaro Group has put time and resources toward the development of community amenities. They’ve donated land and materials for an urban farm that provide fresh fruits and vegetables to the food bank. They’ve supported campaigns to fund the public library and performance arts centre. And they’ve made significant financial contributions to the development of Joseph Brant Hospital. Robert says it most succinctly: “Molinaro Group is all about Burlington. And the city will always be a part of who we are.”
