1.Location

When it comes to downtown living, 55 Mercer is simply unmatched. At the intersection of King and Spadina, the building is right in the centre of the Fashion District, Entertainment District, Financial District, Chinatown, and the stylish Queen West neighbourhood.

Take in Toronto's most exciting films and rub shoulders with Hollywood celebrities at the TIFF Bell Lightbox. See a show at the Velvet Underground, the Horseshoe, the Rivoli or one of dozens more of Toronto's best live music venues. Spend the afternoon perusing vinyl at Sonic Boom, then take a stroll through Kensington Market, or simply spend the afternoon cloud-gazing at Fort York, Victoria Memorial Square or the Grange Park.

The western wing of the downtown core has been going through a rejuvenation for the past twenty years, and new neighbourhoods like Liberty Village and King West Village to the west have been flourishing as young professionals, students, and new families all flock to the new, denser developments coming to the core. The result is a more vibrant downtown than perhaps ever before, with limitless possibilities, no matter who you are, or where your interests lie.

With the Harbourfront just a short walk away, all the natural beauty of the Toronto Islands are at your fingertips, and with Billy Bishop Airport just a few blocks down the street, long drives to catch a flight are a thing of the past. There simply isn't a better location for the GTA urban lifestyle than 55 Mercer.

3.Transportation Options

55 Mercer has a "walker's paradise" score of 100/100. Set between the historically chic Fashion District, the culturally rich Chinatown, the Entertainment District, and Old Toronto, 55 Mercer is close to just about everything in the city. Groceries, entertainment, clothes and just about anything else you could ever want or need are within minutes walk. Pedestrians can walk all of Downtowns beautiful, tree-laden sidewalks and pedestrian streets, but those looking to take shelter from the cold during the winter have the option of taking Toronto's PATH Underground, a series of underground pedestrian tunnels, skyways and walkways.

Streetcars criss-cross throughout the downtown core, making for easy connections to the subway at stations like St. Andrews, Osgoode and Union, while others reach north to Spadina or Bathurst station to connect with the East-West subway line. Just about every TTC line converges within the downtown district, and funnelling through the hub of Union Station, in the southern end of the Entertainment District. From here, travellers, commuters and explorers alike have seemingly unlimited options. The GO Transit infrastructure runs commuter rail lines across the entire GTA and beyond, and VIA Rail provides inter-city transit along the Quebec-Windsor Corridor, the most populous region in all of Canada.

Billy Bishop Airport is only 10-15 walk, making flights across North America convenient and relaxing, but if you're planning a trip further away, transit to Pearson International Airport is simple enough as well, thanks to the relatively new UP train, which starts at Union Station (15 minutes away from 55 Mercer) and is an express trip all the way to the Airport in Mississauga.

4.The Developer

CentreCourt Developments is a relatively recent emergence on the Toronto Condominium scene, but they've made quite a splash since their founding in 2010. With projects already completed like INDX, Karma, and Peter Street Condos all within the downtown core, CentreCourt has established itself as a fixture of the Toronto skyline.

Convinced the Toronto housing market won't slow down any time soon, CentreCourt is pursuing new projects in the city with verve and excitement. Focusing on details, communication and hands-on decision making, CentreCourt is eager to continue to prove itself as one of Toronto's most trusted developers.

Ever since it's founding, CentreCourt has worked hard to produce homes and communities of the highest standard, and the 55 Mercer project seems to be a continuation of their dedication to excellence.

5.Incredible investment opportunity

Some of the most exciting condo projects in the entire GTA are rising up right in it's core. Areas around Fort York, and St. Lawrence Market are seeing a rejuvenation as new developments break ground and try to bring more density and diversity. With all the students and young professionals looking for short commutes and happening neighbourhoods, great swathes of the downtown are being lit with new youthful community energies, startups, and trendy restaurants.

Condo development boomed throughout the 2000s and 2010s as the entertainment district was filled in more densely - condos were sprouting up left, right and centre, among the district's many tourist and entertainment hubs, and now we're beginning to see those development priorities - community sustainability, and style, design and amenties proliferate throughout the downtown core and into surrounding neighbourhoods.

This growth has pushed even further into the centre of town with projects like 55 Mercer pushing up to the edges of Old Toronto. The core is a more vibrant place now than it ever has been, and people from all over the GTA are moving further centrally, whether it's to be closer to work and school, or simply to live where all the action happens - prices for property in the downtown are expected to continue to rise, and investments like 55 Mercer are golden opportunities.

55 Mercer Condo has an excellent Walk and Transit Score of  both 100 out of 100. This location is in the Waterfront Communities-The Island neighborhood in Toronto. Nearby parks include Clarence Square, Simcoe Park and St. Patrick's Square.
