A rich sense of heritage
While true or ‘hard’ loft construction typically involves the conversion of a vintage factory or warehouse, Watermark Lofts is a new, or ’soft’ loft construction. This ensures that only the latest construction materials and methodologies will be used to create your new home, and also makes it eligible for the Tarion Warranty (formerly the Ontario New Home Warranty Program). Hard lofts are currently not covered under this program.
Watermark Lofts, however, is a community not without a deep and abiding sense of heritage. Located on Gerrard Street, east of Main in the Upper Beach area, Watermark Lofts stands on the site of the Lake Simcoe Ice Company office building, a heritage building and integral part of the Toronto community in the 20th century. Elements of the Edwardian Classicism from the Lake Simcoe building will be integrated into the loft designs by rebuilding the original facade into a grand archway which will serve as the entrance to the community, preserving the unique characteristics that make this project one of a kind.
When you live your life at Watermark Lofts you will have easy and convenient access to the many festivals, activities and outdoor pursuits that make the Beaches famous. Enjoy a stroll along the boardwalk, take in a game of beach volleyball, or barbecue with family and friends. The location also puts you minutes from the Danforth GO Train, Main Street subway line and the Ted Reeves Arena. The Martin Goodman trail is within easy reach, affording endless opportunities for active outdoor pursuits. This pristine and beautifully maintained trail is the perfect way to enjoy the natural beauty of the Lake Ontario shoreline, and take in the sights along the way.
With easy access to premier sports and sailing clubs, expansive sandy beach areas, and an abundance of permanently protected parks and greenspace, the Upper Beach has understandably become one of the most exciting and desirable locations in the city.
