The Merchandise Building
This is truly a blue chip reimagining of a historic Toronto building. This 12 storey loft conversion of the former Simpson warehouse built in various stages from 1910-1949 for the Simpson's department store, and later owned by Sears Canada. The Merchandise Building is a classic example of the renowned early 20th-century industrial Chicago School architectural style.
The building is larger than life, and residents could survive without ever leaving - bonus during COVID! There is a Metro Supermarket on the ground floor. The friendly social life in the Merchandise Lofts is another reason residents love it so much.
