Rogers Real Estate Development and Urban Capital celebrated the topping off of M City’s third tower, M3, an 81-storey skyscraper that is now the tallest building in Mississauga.

Since launching in 2018, the tower, designed by Arcadis, has been taking shape with a slender profile featuring a subtle twist at its base and crown. Inside, an extensive amenity program, designed by Cecconi Simone, will include an indoor infinity pool, fitness centre, chef’s kitchen, private dining, kids’ zone and playground, screening room, outdoor sundeck, splash pad, and dining and lounge areas.

In another first, M3 incorporates Canada’s largest tuned mass damper, providing stability against wind sway for residents living at high altitudes.

Five towers are now complete or under construction in the 15-acre community. The M1 and M2 towers, finished in 2023, are fully occupied. M4, launched in 2021, has already risen to 12 storeys, while M5, launched in 2022, has climbed to seven storeys..

City representatives, consultants, and project team members joined a topping-off celebration on Tuesday, October 7. On the 77th floor, artist Kathleen Fu began a live illustration that will evolve into larger piece, set to be permanently installed in M3’s lobby once complete.

John Anderton, vice president and treasurer at Rogers Telecommunications Limited, said M3 marks a powerful addition the city’s skyline, made possible through extensive teamwork across the project. Mark Reeve, partner at Urban Capital, furthers M City’s role in “positioning Mississauga at the forefront of global development.”

Once complete, M City will deliver more than 6,000 new homes across eight towers, accommodating more than 10,000 residents. The 4.3 million-square-foot community includes nearly 85,000 square feet of retail, public art installations, and flexible mixed-use space. More than two acres of new parkland create connections to the neighbouring John “Bud” Cleary Park and the Mary Fix multi-use trail.
