Aqua Condos - Toronto Harbourfront

Aqua Condos - Toronto Harbourfront

An early entry in the Toronto Condo revitalization is the Aqua Condo, which along with Riveria and Waterclub  were some of the first condos in the Toronto  Condo boom, which started to impact the psych of most Torontonians around 2002 or 2003.

This tower is located at the corner of Lower Spadina and Queens Quay West. It sit along the edge of the new Blue Water Edge. And there is a large Marina and Park across the street

In the background you can see the Harbour View Estates Tower One of the Cityplace development. 

Sharing My Thoughts:

 Toronto Condo Living has taken off over the last few years, and the redevelopment in North York Centre, Downtown Toronto, Mississauga and other areas has been nothing short of mind-blowing. Downtown Toronto and North York Centre might not be recognizable just due to the speed of the construction and development. Although there are some that are opposed to increased condo density, we can't discount the benefits many with regards to increased higher use of transit, walking biking and other alternate methods of  transport as opposed to using the car. Toronto just might be a leader, outside of Manhattan (New York City) in this respect. 

Secrets of Toronto's Development Success:

Toronto is a true international city, it has drawn hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world, seeking to make a better life. It's people are industrious and entrepreneurial, which along with some great geographic luck has made Toronto's economy one of the world's most dynamic finance, trading, exporting and manufacturing centers. Over the past 15 years there has been a dramatic shift in the population patterns of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) as the population begins to concentrate into the downtown core, for reasons ranging from transport without a car, to low condo pricing, for young people. Over the last decade an average of 10,000 new condos per year have been sold in the core, in the past 5 to 7 years this average has been over 15,000 new condos. and in the past 3 years there have been over 20,000 new condo sales per year. There is a flare associated with downtown living in Toronto, that the suburbs can't match. It's attracting more people everyday, and so far, there seems nothing set to change it.
