Great location right by Bloor Station, amazing access to shopping and dining. Amenities like the rooftop deck and indoor pool stand out. A lively convenient spot to be at!

Spacious layouts, modern finishes and amazing amenities like an indoor pool. Unbeatable for shopping, dining and transit access. Elevator waits can sometimes be long though..
