Toronto X The Condominium | ?m | 44s | Great Gulf | a—A

That pool area's in the perfect location! Right as Uptown begins to rise in the background. Looks like a great property, smart choice.

Very interesting shots ^^^

Its interesting how much the "dark glass" towers (usually a dark blue) stand out. there's been such a shift in architecture from the white/grey apartment buildings like St James Town. interesting...
 
Popped into the lobby earlier this week...quite nice. Also visited the x2 sales office, now relocated in one of the "townhomes" to the west Tried to get some s on these townhomes, but the (apparently new) staff were tight lipped, hinting that they were either all sold "internally", or would come to market "at some future date about which they knew nothing". In other words : Buddy, don't ask!!". My guess is that GG insiders snapped these up in the early days...

They can have them, they're going to be noisy as all hell with traffic whipping by them coming off Mt. Pleasant. Same goes for the towns facing Bay Street at U Condos.
 
UrbanToronto recently got a chance to see the progress at X The Condominium, Great Gulf's homage to Miesian modernism touched by some Mondrianesque whimsey. Our tour concentrated on the Lobby, the Pool, and the views from up top of the architectsAlliance-designed building..


X's stunning lobby, designed by Cecconi Simone, also tips its hat to Mies van der Rohe by bringing the feel of the travertine-clad Toronto-Dominion Centre lobby to this 44-storey residential tower.

X's pool extends perpendicularly from the tower across the back of the podium.

Up top, the views from X are, unsurprisingly, some of the most stunning in Toronto.

Owners on the top floor will enjoy 12-foot ceilings. This unit sits in the southwest corner of the building.

This unit is in the northwest corner.
