The Building: Icone is a beautifully designed building is in the same area as the better known Roccabella and Tour des Canadiens buildings. The building itself has the usual amenities for a tower of this standing. They include a lobby with 24/7 security, an indoor pool, a gym, a meeting room ideal for business meetings, a yoga room, a tennis court (one of only two in residential buildings the city, the other being the Manhattan) and an outdoor terrace with a hot tub.
The condos: The condos have a high-end finish and are well laid out. There are studios, one bedroom, two bedroom, and three bedroom units. Depending on the floor and orientation, there are some excellent view from many units. The windows are floor to ceiling and offer excellent natural light. The external design is that of a glass tower with several asymmetrical components which help create a feel of uniqueness compared with its symmetrical cousins.
The location: Icone is ideally located north of Rene Levesque which is the traditional southern border of the Downtown core area. This makes it a couple of minutes walk closer to St-Catherines street and the main underground city area. It is ideally located for professionals who will be able to make use of its large and lavish conference rooms as well as for students and professors at McGill and Concordia Universities.
