About Us
Under the guidance of founder and CEO Howard Sokolowski, Metropia has grown into one of Toronto’s most dynamic developers. The company is driven by a set of four core values: integrity, community, quality and customer care. Adhering to these principles has allowed the company to successfully oversee the completion of numerous cutting-edge developments throughout the GTA. In the process, Metropia has also made extensive donations to local charitable organizations and events.
Since Metropia’s founding in 2009, Sokolowski and his team have placed the utmost focus on creating livable communities. First, the company chooses sites with good transportation access, and then works to preserve the surrounding natural setting to the maximum possible extent. They also work to ensure each new community is beneficial to both new residents and longtime inhabitants alike. To achieve these results, Metropia operates with transparency and collaboration as their highest priorities. Working closely with renowned architects, craftsmen and interior designers allows the company to deliver buildings and interiors that blend functionality with visual appeal. Finally, Metropia retains a highly-qualified team whose members provide years of experience at every phase of the development process. The company is then able to guarantee excellent customer service at every stage of the development process.
