Condo Project Summary
This project is a pre-construction condominium development proposed by Marlin Spring for Toronto’s Stockyards District neighbourhood.
Proposed as an 11-storey mid-rise, this development has a modern design that features a range of layouts and will be a welcome addition to this up-and-coming stretch. Stockyards District Residences is slated for a 2022 occupancy.
We’re excited about this growing part of the city’s west end. A neighbourhood with strong community roots, leafy side streets and a developing retail and condominium sector, it also features excellent public transit options. This development is a great opportunity to invest in a burgeoning pocket where big things are planned.
Amenities
The site for this condominium occupies a sunny stretch of St. Clair West on the northwest corner of Symes Road, just west of Keele Street. The proposal calls for an 11-storey mid-rise, consisting of a central portion, plus a north and south wing, with the main residential entrance off the quiet Symes Road.
It calls for 267 residential units, plus 5,844 square-feet of retail on the building’s ground floor. Marlin Spring has proposed a mix of 126 one-bedroom units, 119 two-bedroom and 22 three-bedroom units, each with a private balcony or terrace. The complex will feature 4,682 square-feet of indoor amenities on the ground floor in the south wing and 5,747 square-feet of outdoor amenity space at grade on the western side.
A courtyard off Symes Road will provide residential access, along with vehicle pickup and drop off. 184 vehicle spaces will be provided in two levels of underground parking, along with 267 bicycle spaces.
This new condo building is being designed by Graziani + Corazza, a luxury architectural firm with global reach. They are planning a warm, yet contemporary design for the mid-rise that will set the bar for new developments in this growing neighbourhood.
Location & Neighbourhood
Long considered a quiet, leafy enclave in the city’s west end, populated heavily with factories and industrial buildings, we’ve been seeing some exciting changes here. Just down the street you’ll find the recently-built Stockyards Mall, which features 50,000-square feet of retail and dining, tree-lined pedestrian walkways and a public square. We’ve seen a number of retail and commercial tenants moving into the area, from trendy brew pubs and coffee shops to major retailers like HomeSense and Walmart.
Additionally, we’re seeing more contemporary condominium proposals for the neighbourhood, which are garnering attention from both growing families who love the west end and young professionals who seek a friendly community to come home to. With the City of Toronto expecting growth for this neighbourhood, they’ve been pushing more modern developments like this Condos. The increased population brought to the area with projects like this will support the growing number of commercial and community services, while the proposed retail space will help revitalize the streetscape and improve the public realm.
If you’re looking to invest in a neighbourhood that is still poised for growth, yet doesn’t have the chaos and overwhelming pace of downtown, this is a great option. Charming, leafy and popular with young professionals and families, this new condo project presents some exciting developments for the future, including this one.
