The House of Assembly Reaches New Heights with Crane Installation Onsite

Our House of Assembly condominium development along Sterling Road in Toronto’s west end has reached an important milestone, with the installation of the construction crane now standing tall on site.

As vertical construction begins, it will be exciting to see this 16-storey residence designed by Graziani + Corazza Architects Inc. start to take shape.

The first of three condominium buildings in the Sterling Junction neighbourhood with developer partner Marlin Spring, The House of Assembly will be an anchor in a master-planned community that will introduce over 250 units to this new area. Known for its thriving artistic community, this hidden gem of a neighbourhood, nestled between Bloor Street West and Dundas Street West, is in the process of a remarkable transformation that will welcome hundreds of new residents and employees to the area.

Across the street from the House of Assembly development, construction is nearly complete on Hine’s T3 Sterling Road, a three-building urban office campus with over 415,00 square feet that combines timber, transit, and technology to create an inspired workplace tailored for the modern creative workforce. In addition to the residential condominiums and office campus, the Sterling Junction neighbourhood will also see the addition of new park spaces and a new daycare facility that will be built for the benefit of the community.

Sterling Junction is also home to a number of shops, restaurants, fitness studios, and coffee houses including Forno Cultura, Henderson’s brewery and bottle shop, and Ethica Coffee Roasters.

Between the T3 Campus and the House of Assembly is the Tower Automotive Building, once the tallest tower in Toronto, it is a historic landmark that serves as the development’s centrepiece. The unique building was restored in 2018 and is home to the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), a cultural hub that showcases a diverse collection of modern art and hosts exhibitions and events throughout the year.

While somewhat hidden, the Sterling Junction is a highly transit-accessible site, with a perfect transit score of 100 and an impressive bike score of 96/100 that promises future residents an exceptional lifestyle with dedicated bike paths along Bloor Street and the scenic Toronto Rail Path. The neighbourhood provides access to seven different modes of public transit within a 500-meter radius, including subways (8-minute walk to Dundas West Station and Lansdowne Station), the UP Express (5-minute walk for 15-minute trips to Pearson Airport or Union Station), GO Train (5-minute walk to Bloor GO), future Lansdowne GO Station (9-minute walk for access north to Barrie), streetcars (5-minute walk to 506 Carlton Line, 505 Dundas Line, and 504 King Line).
