District Lofts
Two narrow residential slabs on Richmond West, split by a courtyard and crossed by four exterior bridges.
Overview & history
Context Development built it and architectsAlliance designed it as a hybrid of the apartment slab and the townhouse. Two single-loaded slabs rise from a podium either side of an open void, crossed by four exterior bridges, and corridors run on alternating levels.
The suites are two storeys rather than mezzanines: ten of the eleven residential floors hold units running the full depth of the slab, with windows on both faces. Sizes run from roughly 600 to 2,400 square feet under about ten feet of exposed concrete.
Timeline
The building takes a City of Toronto Architecture and Urban Design Award of Excellence.
