352 Front Street West, Toronto

Fly Condos – 352 Front St W

Registration date 2013-11-26

A new dimension to a popular historic neighbourhood. Stroll along Front Street between Blue Jays Way and Spadina Avenue and you will pass a 24-storey residential tower with 465 suites known as Fly Condos at number 352. Since 2013, the condominium has been a visual draw starting with the unique porte-cochère–the focal point of the superior exterior design by Graziani & Corazza Architects. Layers of horizontal balconies intersect the vertical rise of the mid-rise building with rhythmic precision.  As a perfect example of neighbourhood integration, the structure is linked by a landscaped promenade to Clarence Square Park, an adjacent landmark green space. 

Apart from the spectacular design, there are many reasons to admire the condo development from Empire Communities. The location is ideal and the King West neighbourhood vibrant and exciting. It is known to be the hub of local culture and a locus of regional business. Those who like to play near where they work have the perfect destination. 

With projects like the Fly Condos, Toronto is emerging as the picture of modernity and centre of the most radical architectural designs. An amazing transformation has taken place in this former industrial and working class region.

Fly Condos Amenities

Taking a cue from the dramatic exterior, the interior designers from Munge Leung have opted for a two-storey lobby with an Asian flair, complete with sculptural seating, cut-glass columns and metal birds overhead like oversize origami creatures. A green, white and gold palette enhances the space with its understated elegance. The second level opens onto a landscaped courtyard.

In terms of amenities, there is much to praise. Residents can socialize on the rooftop terrace and tanning deck at the High Society lounge and bar. Resort-style private cabanas, a catering kitchen and barbecue stations make this the center of in-house entertaining. Many chose to congregate in the Fly Fitness Club, a workout haven on the second floor, outfitted with a yoga & Pilates studio, state-of-the-art weight and spinning area, sauna and juice bar. The two Zen gardens for meditation and quiet time are simply icing on the cake. At other times you will find activity in the meeting and party rooms, movie theatre and multimedia centre. Guests are accommodated in a variety of available suites. 

The developers have envisioned a perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living with convenience as their mantra. With so much to do, little time needs to be spent in the suites. However, the studios and one and two-bedroom layouts are well-appointed and afford spectacular views. Sizes range from 400 to 1,100 square feet, all with a gourmet kitchen and spa bathrooms. The open concept design maximizes the use of space and offers contemporary luxury in every detail such as the glass backsplash, the polished granite countertops and custom cabinets.  Residents relish the deep soaker tubs, chrome-framed glass showers, walk-in closets, easy-clean engineered flooring and stacked washer/dryer combos.
