B. Streets Condos

So far, we haven&rsquo;t noticed many Torontonians referring to Bathurst Street as &ldquo;B Street,&rdquo; but perhaps residents living at the B. Street Condos will help the nickname stick. Located at 783 Bathurst Street &amp; 10-20 Loretto Lane, the B. Street Condos is certainly stylish enough to make an impact on the <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/downtown/the-annex">Annex neighbourhood</a>.The 8-storey, mid-rise edifice doesn&rsquo;t threaten to overpower the longstanding historical buildings in the area. Instead, the playful combination of dark brick and lighter precast contributes a much-welcomed contrast to the Annex area. To ensure the contrast wouldn&rsquo;t be too extreme, the architects opted for a palette of slate and cream instead of black and white.While the geometric design by Hariri Pontarini Architects is fun rather than serious, the abstract shape still serves a utilitarian purpose: the architects were able to carve out room for plenty of outdoor spaces by playing with the shape of the building.The building was created in 2014 by Lindvest Properties Limited, a company with over 50 years of experience overseeing both residential and commercial projects in Toronto. And to ensure things are running smoothly on a day-to-day basis, Icon Property Management is in charge of the B. Street Condos.With 195 units in total, the building has a large number of residents to please. Thankfully, those living at 783 Bathurst &amp; 10-20 Loretto Lane have access to a long list of amenities that appeal to all sorts of individuals. There&rsquo;s a terrace with a barbecue, a party room, and a meeting room for those who love to entertain, a gym for health buffs, a games room and movie theatre for kids and kids at heart, and on-site security, a concierge, and plenty of parking just to make life a little easier.

For those looking for as much space as possible, on the other hand, one of the two-storey penthouses should definitely suffice.Impressive interior design by Cecconi Simone is found throughout the building, regardless of which unit a homeowner has chosen. The suites feature an industrial yet modern ambiance, thanks to a variety of materials that have been used to create a streamlined style.
