The City on the Grand Stage.
Something INCREDIBLE is coming to Barrie. Something the
city’s never seen before that will elevate the lifestyle of not only its residents,
but the surrounding community. A monumental first, standing tallest
in Barrie, it’s a home that nods to the future of a city on the rise. A place
that offers urban living, urban amenities and the best of Canadian outdoor
living. Steps to the lake, and with direct access to Toronto, it’s time to
discover a new Barrie - a more modern and connected Barrie and a city where the
stage has been set.
Designed with Barrie's future in mind, Début was conceived with a central idea: how to continue transforming the city into an incredibly dynamic environment. One that fuses together hotel-inspired urban luxury with outdoor living that's distinctly Canadian. Début was designed to be the catalyst of that change.
Début will be the conduit of the emerging community that's going to be the central hub of downtown Barrie. It's not simply a residence; it's an all-season destination with its own true character.
Far From Ordinary. Close to Everything.
Début is not just a residence, it's your connection to urban living, to
nature and everything in between. It features modern, urban ground-level retail on all sides of the building, connected by a pedestrian-friendly shopping arcade that opens up to a farmers' market and marina, just steps away. Live with ease knowing public transit, ski resorts, hiking
trails, beaches and the finest city luxuries are all within reach. Discover the joy of living in a true community, and all that comes with
it.
Steps from hundreds of shops
and restaurants, this is elevated urban living in one of
Ontario’s most picturesque and fastest growing cities.

Design.
Every
element of Début was designed to enhance our residents’ living experience through
innovative design. From big picture ideas, like an architectural twist and feat
in engineering that allows 87% of suites to take in a view of the water, to the
finer details, such as kitchen or bathroom storage solutions and home fitness
features that maximize your quality of life. A smartphone-operated convenience
and security system for residents and visitors allows admittance to suites for
services like cleaning, laundry, etc. from the separate guest/visitor lobby,
making your daily life as seamless as possible.

Creative Functionality.
We’ve
taken the time to maximize every square inch of your space, so no area is left without
purpose, or design consideration. Standard suite kitchens feature
multi-functional islands and drawer units on castors that can be positioned in
various configurations as desired according to use. Configurations include
breakfast, meal preparation, dining, party, and work modes. Most bathrooms
include their own illuminated mirrors, while each master bath is well equipped
with convenient storage and display shelving, as well as a mirrored medicine
cabinet with integrated LED lighting.
