Registration date: 2013-07-09

Not just another run-of-the-mill high-rise condo. With award-winning Hariri Pontarini as the architect and the noted Minto Group as the developer, the ambitious Minto 775 is the low-rise answer to the need for light-filled private city residences with a distinct urban vibe. You cannot select a better location than Queen West in the heart of downtown Toronto.

A five-story podium sprawls between King and Tecumseh Streets, perfectly in tune with the neighbourhood’s existing heritage structures. Two towers of 12 and 17 stacked stories respectively house terraced suites distinguished by expansive glass walls. Located at 775 King St W, Minto 775 houses 350 suites from 350 to 1,943 square feet. Eco-friendly principles have been put in place, earning the building LEED certification. Great thought has been given to melding engineering innovation and the need to respect the environment.

The setback concept breaks the density of the structure and adds visual complexity. It is anything but intimidating as it is more human scale. In the façade details, is all about modern elegance and a minimalist aesthetic characteristic of post-modern architecture. But the living experience is anything but minimal with so much to do in the neighbourhood and a plethora of amenities at home.

Minto 775 Amenities

With the multi-dimensional structure of 775 King St W, there are a variety of lifestyle options with varying features. You can choose from assorted floor plans with one or more bedrooms. You may prefer one city or lake view over another. But everyone enjoys being downtown amid the action of the hood. Great expanses of glass remind residents of the wealth of experience outside.

The linear geometric purity of the building exterior is cleared mirrored inside. The condo units are refined and stylish, employing open concept living and a maximal use of available footage. The focus is on full picture windows and the infusion of natural light into the living space. While Toronto high-rise denizens love to roam their neighbourhoods and remain outdoors, they also expect gourmet kitchens with the latest model appliances and spa-like bathrooms when at home. Absolute quality and an attention to detail is apparent in the rich surface finishes and innovative architectural features. All in all, the pace of an urban lifestyle can be minimized by a relaxing atmosphere in one’s residence.

The amenities indoors and out of this full-service complex create an atmosphere of community and communal luxury. Neighbours gather in the outdoor lounge in good weather, watch movie screenings and have a drink or two. Private groups convene in the party room while others enjoy the media room and indoor lounge and bar. A session of yoga or Pilates can be yours in the fully-equipped fitness centre and spa. Follow it with a steam or massage and a few moments of quiet meditation. Even a dense high-rise can afford residents the peace and harmony of home. In addition, guest suites are available to encourage the reception of family and friends.
