Description
A new condo development is coming to an exclusive midtown neighbourhood in this landmark redevelopment of a significant historical building.
1140 Yonge Condos is a new luxury high-rise condominium by Devron Developments in Toronto. This pre-construction project is located at 1140 Yonge St, by the intersection of Marlborough Avenue just north of Bloor Street in the Toronto neighbourhood of Summerhill.
This pre-construction condo is a transit-oriented development that is situated within walking distance of no less than three subway stations and a close proximity to local amenities and services.
1140 Yonge Condos looks to fully restore the Pierce-Arrow building, a luxury car showroom built in 1930 that has since been listed as a municipal heritage property. Still sporting a stone arch facade facing Yonge Street, this opulent building also found fame with its next tenant, the CBC, which used it as its main television studio to film such popular Canadian shows such as Wayne and Shuster and Front Page Challenge.
Notwithstanding the important history of this famous building, due to its premium address just north of Bloor Street, this pre-construction condo offers residents easy access to just about anywhere in the downtown core.
Containing just 68 residences over its 9-storey structure, this hotel-inspired boutique residence features floor-to-ceiling sliding glass windows and doors, expansive cascading terraces with wrap-around panoramic views, and living units that have a starting size of 1,100 square feet.
Further up Yonge Street by Steeles Avenue is Devron’s other nearby luxury development, The Vanguard. This 25-storey, 200-suite, completely sold out. This upmarket residence is high class personified, featuring 4 Tesla charging stations equipped with a rainwater car wash, a yoga studio, and a rooftop vegetable garden, all while looking to become just the 23rd LEED gold-certified building in Toronto.
As more details about this condo come to light, a look at this condo’s surroundings show it to be full of conveniences and local amenities, demonstrating why this well-regarded neighbourhood is so highly regarded.
