After remarks and receiving congratulations from Toronto Mayor John Tory and standing in front of a 40' 3-D Nobu sculpture, Chef Nobu led a ceremonial sake toast. The stakeholders then picked up golden shovels and planted them in the earth signaling the project's official groundbreaking.

"It's an exciting project, our partners are terrific people and hopefully we do other things together too," said Robert De Niro.

"Thank you so much to Madison Group; next comes the hotel, residence and restaurant! I am so excited to be here today with all of my team and I'm looking forward to introducing my food to Torontonians," said Chef Nobu Matsuhisa.

Many of the residential purchasers were thrilled to be in attendance, taking pictures in front of the Nobu sculpture and remarking about their excitement that the remarkable project was about to commence construction.
