2191 Yonge Street

Right on Yonge Street and just steps away from Eglinton Station, the Quantum North Tower shines above this bustling intersection. The homes at 2191 Yonge Street offer luxurious condominiums to prospective buyers looking to live right next to the action of midtown Toronto.

Clad in a façade of glass, metal, and concrete, the Quantum North Tower stands beside its shorter twin building from across a concrete courtyard. The tower at 2191 Yonge also sits atop retail space, currently occupied by a steakhouse and a coffee shop, and next to its sister tower: Quantum South Tower. The shorter buildings directly south of 2129 Yonge Street ensure unobstructed views of downtown Toronto from the Quantum North Tower, while residents facing north can see Yonge and Sheppard from the uppermost floors.

The building also boasts plenty of amenities, including an expansive gym, a concierge service, a parking garage with a carwash, a meeting room, a party room, a business centre, a 25 meter pool, a sauna, and outdoor terraces with barbecues. Toronto condos for sale in this building are ideal for everyone from young professional homeowners to families looking to invest in a prime piece of midtown real estate.

Built in 2008, the Quantum North Tower holds 556 Toronto condos that are spread out over 53 storeys. These homes begin at around 600 square feet, while the building’s largest penthouse reaches to over 4,000 square feet. The building also has a variety of highly customizable and comfortable open concept floor plans.

Floor-to-ceiling windows flood living spaces at 2191 Yonge, while glass balconies allow residents to properly view the humming streets below. Kitchens are luxuriously outfitted with granite counters, stainless-steel appliances, and breakfast bars, while bathrooms are finished with ceramic tile and porcelain.

The suites also have sliding glass doors to separate spaces, and floors finished with hardwood. Plus, the building has a smart elevator system that ensures residents never have to wait too long during peak hours, especially helpful for such a tall building.

The Quantum North Tower is located in the Yonge and Eglinton neighbourhood, one of Toronto’s best areas for midtown restaurants, entertainment venues, cafés, and bars. Plenty of hip, casual, and fine dining options for eating out can be found along Yonge Street, in addition to unique boutiques or big box stores like Best Buy or Sporting Life. More shopping can also be found close by at the Yonge-Eglinton Centre, a shopping mall complete with a grocery store.

There’s plenty to do in the evening for residents; a number of exciting bars dot Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue, some that specialize in karaoke, dancing, or billiards. There's also the popular Absolute Comedy Club nearby, as well as two movie theaters at the intersection of Yonge and Eglinton.

Several parks are also just a walk away from 2191 Yonge Street, including Oriole Park, June Rowlands Park, Dunfield Park, Eglinton Park and Sherwood Park. Quite a few schools are also close to the Quantum North Tower, such as St Monica Catholic School, Davisville Junior Public School, John Fisher Junior Public School, North Toronto Collegiate, and Northern Secondary School.

Getting around town will be no sweat for residents, especially with the entrance to the Eglinton Subway Station right across the street.

TTC buses also run along Yonge Street late into the night, as well as across Eglinton Avenue. Residents should also expect to make use of the under construction Light-Rail Transit system being built on Eglinton Avenue, which is expected to be finished in 2020.

Drivers living can use Eglinton Avenue to access the Allen Road, from which they can reach the 401 in no time. Those heading east, on the other hand, can head toward the Don Valley Parkway via Bayview Avenue.
