Gallery Towers #15810 | 56 Andre De Grasse Street, Markham

Before its conversion to lofts, this Leslieville landmark lay at the heart of Torontos industrial sector. Originally built to house printing presses, this warehouse was once a vital part of Torontos industry. Converted to lofts in 2014, this Toronto loft seamlessly blends the original 3-storey structure with a striking glass tower and stacked townhouses along the east side.Indeed, the original 1913 building remains an integral part of the condominium, with an eight-story tower that rises above the historical podium. Designed with an eye to maintaining the original features, the developers incorporated the original industrial skylights into these two-storey units. Another painstaking restoration involved the faade as well as the classic features of the main entrance portico, which reveals a grand wooden staircase and vaulted ceilings.
