3525 Kariya Drive Mississauga
Elle Condominium is a highrise condo located at 3525 Kariya Dr, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L5B 0C2. This 31 storey tower was the third building in the Square One City Centre area to be built and completed by Vancouver developer Amacon Corp.
Contents
Amacon first completed Elle’s sister towers known as Eden Park, and Eve, and they are now busy with the multi-year Parkside Village development under construction at the corner of Burnhamthorpe Rd. and Confederation Parkway.
3525 Kariya Drive was built and completed in 2010, and it has a clean, modernist look that is typical for most of Amacon’s projects.
Elle Condominium faces on to an open area of Kariya Drive, and is just a couple of blocks away from the very busy Square One Shopping Centre.
The Elle condominium consists of a single 31 storey tower which is built over an attractive podium. It is connected with its sister condos Eden Park and Eve, by a drive-through/walkway that runs from Kariya Drive to Hurontario Street.

Parks and Recreation
Elle is fortunate to have nearby access to two excellent city parks.
Kariya Park, is a very special urban park which was opened in 1992. It was a gift to the city of Mississauga from its ‘sister’ city of Kariya, Japan, and it is a two minute walk away. Kariya Park is an oasis of tranquility in the centre of Mississauga.
Kariya Park features a pond (with koi fish & wild turtles), cherry trees, and serene Japanese gardens, and it is often the setting for wedding pictures for newlywed couples.
Across Hurontario St., another large park known as Mississauga Valley Park features baseball and soccer fields, extensive BBQ areas, a forested creek with plenty of birdwatching, and water splash pads for children.
