Share post:


As Downtown Toronto continues to grow and cater to the demand of its ever-growing population, some exceptional new retail spaces are being created. One remarkable space, located just off the busy intersection of Yonge and Gerrard, will be especially unique. Featuring a restored 1873 heritage façade and two-levels of premium retail space, 401 Yonge Street will boast over 11,600 square feet showcasing soaring ceilings heights, exceptional frontage as well as potential for a rooftop patio.
 
Measuring a full 50 feet along busy Yonge Street, the building will feature 20-foot ceilings on the ground floor and 14-foot ceilings on the second level. The ground floor will measure 4,679 square feet, while the second level will measure 4,643 square feet. There will also be approximately 2,300 square feet of lower level storage space. 


Directly across the street from Canada’s largest hotel, the Eaton Chelsea, and Aura, Canada’s tallest condominium development, 401 Yonge Street  is just a short walk from Ryerson University, Yonge-Dundas Square, University of Toronto and the Toronto Eaton Centre which soon will boast flagship locations for both Saks Fifth Avenue and Nordstrom.
 
With over 70,000 residents living within a kilometre of 401 Yonge Street, this  flexible retail space is available in the Spring of 2015. For more information please contact Brandon Gorman or Graham Smith of Ashlar Urban Retail at 416-205-9222.
