440 Dufferin Street

Tucked between Queen and King Streets West in the <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/west-end/little-portugal">Little Portugal neighbourhood</a>, the 440 Dufferin Street Condos is a much sought after place for both living and working. Created by Fitzrovia Capital along with Siteline Communities, this will be one of the first residential developments where light manufacturing spaces are integrated right into the complex.As such, the planning and building process has been met with both care and contemplation. Because of the site&rsquo;s legacy as a place where skilled craftspeople and artisans once worked &mdash; it once functioned as a workshop space &mdash; the proud community fought to ensure that, as Toronto&rsquo;s economic development and culture division expert Chris Rickett says,&ldquo;this is still a space where things are being made.&rdquo;And still the developers behind 440 Dufferin Street Condos have managed to create a plan that promises to look both sophisticated and refined. Renowned for their distinctive yet understated elegance, the much-acclaimed Graziani + Corazza Architects took the reigns on the design of these three, mixed-use buildings.Each building is connected to a four-storey podium that spans almost 54,000 square feet, and contains state-of-the-art light industrial and retail spaces. Above, the heights at 440 Dufferin Condos vary, with the tallest tower at the south end standing at 12 storeys, the central, C-shaped structure reaching to 9, and the northernmost spanning 10.Moreover, as each of the towers rise, the glass-clad upper levels are set back and adorned with gleaming glass-walled balconies. The architects have clearly arranged these buildings so as to maximize the views for their residents to enjoy.Additionally, the generous set of amenities offered to those living in the 440 Dufferin Condos sits in a large space in the central building. Half of the space is set inside while the remainder is open to the elements, creating a natural transition between life within these chic condos and in the surrounding neighbourhood.
