Quantum South Tower

The sizeable condo at 2181 Yonge Street isn&rsquo;t big just for the sake of it. Rather, the building is home to 334 <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/condos">Toronto condos</a> so that there&rsquo;s plenty of opportunity for prospective buyers to land <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/condos-for-sale">Toronto condos for sale</a> in this idyllic location. In fact, the Quantum South Tower is part of a complex made up of two twin towers, which includes <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/2191-yonge-st-quantum-north-tower">Quantum North Tower</a>. Built in 2007, the south tower was the first of the two to be occupied, and reaches to 28 storeys.Becoming more and more trendy &mdash; and therefore dense &mdash; by the day, <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/midtown">midtown Toronto</a> offers its residents plenty of activities, amenities, and entertainment, paired with a slightly less hectic environment. And the Minto Group Inc. certainly picked up on this before deciding to build such a robust tower.For those who need a little peace and quiet, residents can grab a book and head out to the circular landscaped courtyard, where they can sit by the fountain that&rsquo;s located between the Quantum South and Quantum North Towers.Rest and relaxation can also be found in 2181 Yonge&rsquo;s Landmark Club: this is where the amenities are found, and the lineup includes a modern gym, a party room with lounge, kitchen, bar, and dining room, an indoor lap pool, sauna, and hot tub, plus a common terrace. The concierge, on the other hand, is stationed down in the lobby. And to top it all off, visitors will never feel like they are overstaying their welcome, thanks to the building&rsquo;s guest suites.

Buyers who want to live in the most bustling area north of Bloor will be more than satisfied with what they find in the <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/midtown/yonge-and-eglinton">Yonge and Eglinton neighbourhood</a>. Thankfully, then, the Quantum South Tower is located just steps south of the Yonge and Eglinton intersection.Along Yonge Street, residents can find businesses that range from elegant Italian eateries to used book stores.

Yet another benefit of such a sizeable building is the variety of units held within it.
