Atria Devel­op­ments intro­duced Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts, a new live/work indus­trial con­ver­sion that will revi­tal­ize a for­mer gar­ment fac­tory. Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts is located in the Queen Street East neigh­bor­hood, one that is under­go­ing an excit­ing resur­gence between Logan Avenue and Leslie Street to form a hip Down­town Toronto East.

This neigh­bour­hood is fast on its way to becom­ing an urban suc­cess story. Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts is just down the street from the Dis­tillery Dis­trict, and steps from Leslieville. In the vicin­ity are eater­ies such as Verveine and Gio Rana’s Really, Really Nice Restaurant.

Pop­u­lar nightspots include Bar­rio, where reg­u­lars sip mar­ti­nis and enjoy tapas-style treats while a DJ spins music on Sat­ur­day night. When the pro­posed changes to the Toronto Film Stu­dio suround­ings become real­ity, that entire area will be home to new retail, res­i­den­tial and live/work hous­ing, adding to the urban tapestry.

Designed by award-winning Core Archi­tects Inc., the eight-storey Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts meld the orig­i­nal brick façade of the ware­house with mod­ern steel and glass to cre­ate a strik­ing whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. The build­ing ter­races back begin at the third floor, and are dis­tin­guished by an acid green canopy that will grace the entry on Car­law and extend back into the lobby. Every loft offers a glazed bal­cony or spa­cious ter­race with amaz­ing views.

The Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts fea­tures 150 lofts com­prised of stu­dios, one-bedroom, one-bedroom plus den/workspace, two-bedroom, and two-bedroom plus den/workspace, and pent­houses with views of the lake. Priced from just $139,900, these lofts, will range in size from 525 to 1,303 square foot and offer the low­est price per square foot of any authen­tic loft in the city.

The spec­tac­u­lar model loft by Fleur-de-lis Inte­rior Design Inc. con­tains exam­ples of the building’s inter­est­ing archi­tec­tural details such as the orig­i­nal fluted columns, ceil­ings that soar up to almost 12 feet, and large win­dows. The model kitchen will fea­ture mod­ern Wenge-stained cab­i­netry, a stone back­splash and island with a stone top. This one-bedroom plus den/workspace also show­cases a gas stove, gas BBQ hookup, and an optional gas fireplace.

Atria Devel­op­ments is known as the cre­ator of i-Zone live/work lofts, located across the street from Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts. i-Zone was a major cat­a­lyst for change in the sur­round­ing neigh­bour­hood, and is now home to artists, film­mak­ers, pho­tog­ra­phers, and other cre­ative spir­its. The devel­op­ment of the Gar­ment Fac­tory Lofts will bring a fur­ther green­ing to this for­mer indus­trial neigh­bour­hood with the inclu­sion of a par­kette that backs onto Boston Avenue.

Atria Devel­op­ments is a family-owned and oper­ated com­pany spe­cial­iz­ing in the revi­tal­iza­tion of for­mer indus­trial urban areas by renew­ing exist­ing sites.
