About the Project

This two building complex anchors the Dundas/Carlaw corner in a predominately warehouse district, but is bisected into two, wedge shaped parts by a former curving railway corridor, that will eventually become a neighbourhood landscaped space. Flatiron Lofts is a 10 storey residential building comprising some 97 units with retail at grade. Work Loft is a 10 storey building with 153 live/work units.

The two buildings play with a modern interpretation of the warehouse vernacular, the rhythm of the brick piers and the window mullion spacing all contribute to the composition. The design allows the two buildings to play off each other, with the curving convex shape of Flat Iron and the concave shapes of Work Lofts.
