The Derby
A four-storey building of 26 two-storey lofts at King and Parliament, on the site of the Derby Tavern.
Overview & history
Sweeny&Co Architects designed it for Derby Development Corporation, and lists it as the practice's first project and the first two-storey open loft condominium in Toronto. The Derby Tavern had operated on the corner since 1847 and was demolished in the late 1980s.
Every suite runs over two levels. Interiors are exposed brick and wooden beams under sixteen-foot ceilings with warehouse-style windows, and a glass atrium runs through the centre of the building; some suites have private rooftop terraces.
