Jason Bondy-Sawyer's Toronto Real Estate Blog
Upon its completion in 2003, condo critic Christopher Hume wrote a review of MOZO (“Modern Living Zone”) in his Toronto Star column. He gave the building an A+. To this day realtors are fond of quoting Mr Hume’s article in their marketing materials (he called it, “One of the most beautiful buildings in Toronto”). And rightly so. MOZO is one of the most sought-after buildings in the St Lawrence Market area.
Last month, in another of my “Condo/Loft Spotlight” posts (read it here), I focused on DNA Phases 1 and 2 in the King Street West/Liberty Village area. There’s no doubt that both rank as two of the most sought after buildings in the downtown core. Well, there’s another building soon to be added to this list – “DNA 3“.
The St Lawrence Market area is, in my humble opinion, one of the best places in all of downtown Toronto to call home. It offers an impressive blend of history, architecture, and entertainment, and it’s located steps to the TTC, Financial District, grocery stores, the Market itself, St James Park and Cathedral, etc… My first few years as a realtor were spent working primarily in this area and it continues to be one of the main areas I do business. There are a number of quality condo/loft buildings here to choose from (some of which I’ll spotlight in future blog posts), but at the moment I’d like to take a look at “SPIRE“.
