The place

A one-bed-plus-den, one-bath condo on Avenue just south of Davenport with an underground parking spot. The building’s façade is a head turner: rounded corners, sculpted white concrete, dark-tinted windows, gold trim and a dramatic overhang.

There are many shared amenities, including a gym, a 24-hour concierge, access to a $150-a-night guest suite and a party room with a terrace. It’s right across from Drake’s favourite restaurant, Sotto Sotto, and is within walking distance of half a dozen subway stations, the ROM, Ramsden Park and Yorkville’s treasure trove of shops and restaurants.

The history

This unit was originally purchased pre-construction in 2017. The current owner took possession in June of 2020. She’s now moving out of the city and putting her property on the market.
