About 1 Yorkville

1 Yorkville brought a slim glass tower to the corner where Yorkville Avenue meets Yonge Street. It was completed in 2021 and holds 555 suites over 56 storeys.

The appeal is the address. Bloor–Yonge station, the Bloor Street shopping strip and Yorkville's restaurants are all on foot, and Google reviewers repeatedly mention the proximity to shops and the subway. The most common compliments are about friendly staff and the concierge.

One-star reviews are a sizeable minority, 33 of 127. A Strata review notes that west-facing units are noisy because of nearby construction, with utilities of about $80 to $100 a month and fibre internet at $113.

Storeys, suites, year and developers are from condos.ca. No freely licensed photo of the building was available.
