Edge Lofts Design
Edge Lofts is a modernist six storey condominium building located directly across the Don River east of Toronto’s downtown core. This area is undergoing a significant revitalization that began with the redevelopment of the heritage Distillery District and continues with the reinvention of Regent Park and the re-urbanization of the West Don Lands. When completed, Edge Lofts will be at the core of this expanding pedestrian-focused neighbourhood.
Featuring a bold glass and metal façade, Edge Lofts incorporates open concept lofts with 10 foot high ceilings, concrete floors and energyefficient windows. Rooftop patios offer a shared green area and there are two retail spaces at grade. Edge Loft residents will enjoy unobstructed western views overlooking the Don Valley to the downtown in perpetuity.
Utilizing an innovative structural design system, Edge Lofts demonstrates how contemporary design can embody both the essential elements of contextual main street housing and civic-minded city building.
