About Panda Condos
Panda sits on Edward Street between Yonge and Bay, a few minutes from Toronto Metropolitan University, the Eaton Centre and the Dundas and College subway stations, which is why it is heavily rented to students and young professionals.
Heights and unit counts vary by source. The City of Toronto's Green Standard profile and Strata.ca give 30 storeys and 555 suites; condos.ca lists 35 storeys and 629 suites, which may reflect the original plan.
Google reviews are polarised. Residents praise the gym, the concierge and the central location, and several reviews mention a basketball court and study lounge among the amenities. The complaints that recur are water flooding and problems with leases.
Storeys are 30 in the City of Toronto profile and Strata.ca, 35 on condos.ca and condonow, 29 and 28 elsewhere. Units are 555 on Strata.ca and 629 on condos.ca. The completion year is given as 2020 (expected) by some sources and 2022 by others; 2022 is used here, and the exact year is unconfirmed.

Panda Condos reviews: the Google rating

Who Panda Condos suits, and who should look elsewhere
A good fit for
Students, young professionals and renters who prioritise a walk to Yonge, the Eaton Centre and TMU over a quiet building.

Before you buy in any condo, ask for the status certificate and read the reserve fund study; it shows the corporation’s finances, special assessments and upcoming repairs. Use the condo fee calculator to check monthly costs and the land transfer tax calculator for closing.
