At 36 Lee Centre Drive sits the Ellipse West Tower, alongside Ellipse - East Tower Condos, these glass towers come together to form an elliptical shape. The 34-storey edifice is home to a grand total of 387 units, and was designed by Kirkor Architects & Planners and constructed in 2004 by Lee Developments.

Residents living at 36 Lee Centre Dr are well taken care of, as the building is staffed by a concierge. The Ellipse West tower also features underground parking, a gym, a sauna, and an indoor swimming pool.

All of the homes at 36 Lee Centre Dr are modestly sized, with Scarborough condos starting at around 475 and reaching to approximately 1,050 square feet. While large families might need to look elsewhere, residents with one or two children will be more than comfortable in the largest homes in the building, which contain two bedrooms plus a den.

Living spaces are modern and bright, featuring open concept kitchens and large, bright windows. Some units at 36 Lee Centre Dr also contain slightly rounded walls due to the shape of the building.

Scarborough’s Woburn neighbourhood couldn’t be better suited to energetic locals who prefer to keep a good distance between their homes and the downtown core. Residents of 36 Lee Centre Dr have plenty of ways to stay entertained, including paying a visit to the Scarborough Town Centre or any of the green spaces in the area.

Having the Scarborough Town Centre so close at hand is useful, whether residents feel like updating their wardrobe or when a rainy day calls for some window-shopping. Just south of this mall is a Toronto Public Library branch and a YMCA, both of which put on programming for participants of all ages.

As for the green spaces in Woburn, one great option is Cedar Brook Park, which is due south of 36 Lee Centre Dr. Residents can head here to stroll along the park’s trails, which lead into Hague Park to the west. Those who are serious about golf, on the other hand, can become members at the Scarboro Golf and Country Club, which is just a short drive away from the Ellipse West Tower.

Regardless of one’s preferred mode of transportation, there’s no denying that 36 Lee Centre Dr is extremely accessible.

Those heading out by car can use this highway to reach north-west highways like the Don Valley Parkway or the Allen Expressway, or they can use the 401 to visit neighbouring cities and towns.

Resident’s who rely on public transit to get around can reach McCowan Station by walking for less than 15 minutes, while the 134 Progress bus also lands residents at this station in around 6 minutes.
