The Chestnut Park Condos have been staple of the downtown Toronto landscape for almost thirty years. Completed in 1990, this 22 storey building might not be as shiny and new as its high rise counterparts, but its robust brick façade houses spacious and light-filled suites with great, flexible layouts. It also boasts a near perfect walk score and a 100 transit score.
55 Centre Avenue is home to the Textile Museum of Canada, which explores cultural identity through textile. The Museum’s permanent collection consists of more than 13,000 artifacts and spans nearly 2,000 years. An integral part of our history, heritage, and customs, the Museum is probably one of the best amenity spaces that you can get in the city! Open daily from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (8:00 p.m. on Wednesdays), the museum's hours won't impede on the resident's enjoyment of their shared space.
On Centre Street off Dundas Street West and one block east of University, Chestnut Park is at the cross-roads of one of the most bustling intersection in downtown Toronto. The location can't be beat: it's steps to CF Eaton Centre, City Hall, the Financial District, major hospitals, and Nathan Phillips Square, which offers a brightly lit skating rink in the winters, and often hosts one of the most talked about exhibits at Nuit Blanche.
Art and cultural buffs will love the Textile Museum of Canada right downstairs from their suite, and the Art Gallery of Ontario, Ontario College of Art and Design, and Village by the Grange all within walking distance. Foodies will love the strip of Dundas Street West between University Avenue and Bay Street, which has recently been hailed as Toronto’s "Little Tokyo" because of its highly rated ramen shops and Japanese bakeries.
