York Heritage Properties acquires, renovates, retrofits and manages architecturally interesting older buildings in Toronto to provide a dignified, sophisticated alternative to costly, conventional office space. The Toronto Carpet Factory and the York Liberty buildings in Liberty Village have acquired an international reputation for the adaptive reuse of historical complexes. The York Heritage designers have attempted to create space that is youthful, exhilarating and attractive to a new corporate culture that requires its office accommodation to be a resource rather than merely four walls to house employees and equipment. York Heritage Properties is dedicated to Toronto's Architectural Heritage. For more than 25 years, York Heritage Properties and its dedicated principals and team have worked actively and enthusiastically as restorers and renovators of designated heritage structures and architecturally significant older buildings in the City of Toronto. The company is the winner of many heritage and community awards, including an Award of Merit from Heritage Toronto for its ongoing commitment to the preservation and adaptive re-use of historical properties, a Certificate of Building Excellence in the Historical Building category from the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) for its Toronto Carpet Factory project, and a Business Recognition Award from the City of Toronto. In addition, two restoration projects completed by York Heritage have received specific Awards of Merit from Heritage Toronto.
