993 Queen St W, Toronto
The Candy Factory Lofts
Overview
The Candy Factory lofts are quite simply a work of art. Dating back to the 1930s, 993 Queen St. West was once the home of Ce De Candy Company, makers of Halloween favourites Rockets and Fizzers. Today it is one of Toronto’s most popular and iconic loft buildings.
The Metro Ontario Group has tastefully melded historic with modern, resulting in the Brick 'n Beam character along with high ceilings and open concept layouts that define contemporary hard lofts. Completed in 1999, the six-storey post and beam building houses 121 gorgeous loft conversions. Suites are very large and quite spectacular, with 12-14 ft ceilings, sand blasted exposed brick, plank hardwood floors, beams and columns, kitchen islands, high quality appliances, gas fireplaces and sleek finishes.
If what you are looking for is the real deal in loft living, this is it.
