Hungry but don’t feel like cooking? Forgot to pack a lunch? Or maybe you missed your daily fix of Starbucks. Whatever the case, the new Market by Longo’s could probably solve all those problems!

BloorCondos visited the new store to see what fresh finds The Market offered. The store isn’t large by traditional standards, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The compact sized store made it easy to navigate with tons of friendly staff nearby to help. The salad bar seemed to be the most popular attraction, where many people were mixing and matching salad combos. Past the salad bar was a sushi station with sets made right in front of you! Some delicious entrées can be had along the west wall with everything from a bakery to a pizza parlour. There’s a fresh fish counter at the back with prepared meats seasoned and ready to go… and for those who like their coffee on the run; the built-in Starbucks is there to serve you!

The Market is a great addition to Bloor and Yonge, giving residents and employees of the neighbourhood a great selection of prepared foods at a convenient location. The Market is located next to the Toronto Marriot – Bloor Yorkville at Bloor and Park Rd (100 Bloor Street East Toronto ON M4W 1A7) and open from Monday – Friday 7am-9pm Saturday & Sunday 7am-8pm!

 The new One Bloor will offer spectacular views, from a variety of vantage points!  Currently, the Yonge and Bloor corner is being used as the sales centre for the project.  Once completed the proposed 65 Story tower will rise above the other buildings in the area and offer panoramic views of either the City or Lake.  Take a look at what some of the South and West views will eventually look like! 

Back in January we shared a story about Menkes newest project, “Pears On The Avenue”.  Since then not much has been said…that was until their latest e-blast!

According to the email, it looks like Pears will be opening in April and will offer only 140 suites.  The spring market is shaping up to be an exciting time with Number One Bloor and Pears on the Avenue both adding to Yorkville skyline!  Check back often for updates on both of these projects.

Rising 65 storeys above Yonge and Bloor will soon be the new Number One Bloor! Great Gulf Homes held an information session for a select group to unveil plans of their newest project. BloorCondos was there to learn more about the Hariri Pontarini designed building.

Interior units will be designed by the world renown and Toronto based interior design firm; Cecconi Simone. The tower will be divided into 3 categories, offering different suite features at varying price points. Units will approximately 9″ high in height and offer pre-engineered flooring throughout. (More on that in future posts)

Residents will also have access to an impressive amenity space spread over two floors! Some of the features include an indoor/outdoor pool, beautiful landscaped outdoor terraces with fireplaces, and a sculptured garden to name a few.

In the coming weeks will be sharing more details on Number One Bloor. To learn more, check back often, or send us an email!

As the Toronto sky line evolves, living 50+ floors above the City, is becoming more of the norm.  A few years back, being on the 35 th floor was like being on top of it all!  With the introduction of Aura Condos at 75 floors, Shangri-La Toronto at 66, and Number One Bloor at 65 we’re constantly pushing the boundaries to how high we can live.  It’s often hard to visually understand what being on the 50th floor actually looks like!

Earlier in the week we had the chance to take in the views from The Residences at The Ritz Carlton Toronto.  It was a breathtaking experince to see how beautiful the City looks from so high up!  Check out more photos below:
