On July 3, 2007, Taylor Woodrow plc and George Wimpey plc merged to form Taylor Wimpey plc, a merger that brings together nearly 200 years of homebuilding expertise. Taylor Wimpey plc is a dedicated homebuilding company with operations in the United Kingdom, North America, Spain and Gibraltar. We aim to be the homebuilder of choice for our customers, our employees, our shareholders and for the communities in which we operate.

Taylor Wimpey’s predecessor companies have been responsible for some of the world’s largest and most unique developments, including such projects as hydro-electric dams in Canada, the John Wayne Orange County airport in California, the British Embassy in Moscow, Main Street USA at Disneyland-Paris, and the undersea engineering marvel known as “The Chunnel,” connecting Great Britain and France. The company’s home building roots date back to 1921.

Monarch has built low-rise homes for more than 70 years, and in response to changing market demographics entered the condominium business in 1993. The settings for our signature low-rise residential communities include golf courses, conservation areas as well as centrally located communities in the heart of the city and close to amenities. Monarch’s home designs include wide open living spaces, California archways, gourmet kitchens and all of the features and finishes you would expect.

Since it was launched, the high-rise division has sold more than 7,000 suites – a level of success achieved through visionary thinking in choosing sought-after locations, designing award-winning floor plans accompanied by topnotch service to condominium purchasers. Presently, the Company offers condominiums in Toronto’s most sought-after locations.

Monarch takes environmental issues such as energy and water conservation and air quality seriously. As a member of the Canada Green Building Council, we are committed to developing a greener lifestyle in its homes and condominiums and have taken the lead by incorporating numerous environmental initiatives that provide owners with greener, more energy-efficient surroundings.

Monarch has been a member of OTHBA since 1956, and is been committed to helping this industry flourish. Monarch’s association involvement includes three GTHBA past-presidents and in 2006-07 Monarch President Brian Johnston served as President of the Ontario Home Builders Association.
