My Square One Condo

Marilyn Monroe condos have put Mississauga on a global map becoming a landmark for the city and defining Mississauga’s skyline. They have attracted both tourists and investors from all over the world and were sold out within 2 weeks of opening!

Officially called Absolute Towers, the building and its shorter and slightly less buxom twin, were the result of an international design competition in 2005 won by the MAD Architectural Design Studio of Beijing beating 92 other submissions. Company officials have credited the project with giving both Mississauga and their firm a global profile.

The condos have become known as the Marilyn Monroe condos, resembling the hourglass figure of Marilyn Monroe.

That’s a view shared by Hazel McCallion, the city’s long-serving octogenarian mayor, who says the project represents Mississauga’s arrival as a “global city.” “This is not the end; it is just the beginning,” she told reporters last fall.

Living in the Absolute community is like living in a 5 star hotel. All of the condos share a common 30,000 sq ft amenities section that is known as the Absolute Club, which is shared by all the Absolute residents. It is a 3 story recreation and exercise facility that is both indoor and outdoor.

.

The Marilyn Monroe Buildings consist of 30,000 sq ft of amenities, including:

1. A two story gymnasium featuring areas for basketball, baseball, and volleyball. It is also surrounded by an indoor running track.
2. The area includes an exercise complex, aerobics center, Yoga/Pilates space and a weight room, change rooms, showers and locker rooms for both men and women. Full time activity director and personal trainer available on site.
3. An elite feature of the club is its athletes lounge with a juice bar
4. Heated outdoor swimming pool that has a patio and a fireplace and an indoor pool with a whirlpool, along with spas and steam rooms
5. 2 squash courts, a billiard room, and a card room
6. A private theatre that is fully furnished with large TV screens, DVD players and surround sound!
7. Media room, board room, and a business centre for private or condominium meetings
8. 3 party rooms with a kitchen
9. A breathtaking sundeck with BBQ facilities and a lounging area
10. 5 furnished guest suites

The result of a worldwide architecture and design competition, the tower is a fantastic example of outside the box thinking. Eschewing straightlines, fixed points and vertices, the tower is a slender, graceful curvaceous form of glass and steel with magnificent wrap-around balconies, soaring sightlines and incredible vistas. The suites and penthouses (on the uppermost storeys) provide the ultimate in elegant gracious living.

Spiral Tower 5 (Building E)
Stylish, sinuous and seductive, the fifth tower in the Absolute firmament is an ode to the ultimate in curvaceous beauty. A bold new expression of avante garde architecture, this design was a prestigious winner in a worldwide design competition. Towering 40 storeys high in the heart of Mississauga, this building raises elegant living to a true art form. Translucent glass draped around stunning elliptical balconies, sensational 360 vistas, soaring 9′ and 10′ ceilings, exquisite hardwoods and plush 50 oz broadlooms are just some of the marvelous features in this one-of-a-kind residence.
