Since UrbanToronto’s last update in April, 2025, when 1071 King West had just emerged above grade, the project from Hullmark and Woodbourne Canada Management Inc has topped out, and work on its exterior is well advanced. Designed by BDP Quadrangle, with Kirkor Architects and Planners as Architect of Record, the 17-storey purpose-built rental building has become a striking new presence at the western edge of Toronto’s King West neighbourhood. Occupying a prominent triangular site bounded by King Street West, Douro Street, and the Kitchener Rail Corridor, the development’s flatiron massing is now fully expressed.
By January, 2026, the structure stood at 16 storeys, with perimeter formwork, safety screening, and decking assembled for the 17th-floor slab pour. Red brick cladding reached the fourth floor, while the ground level openings awaited curtain wall glazing and steel framing for the retail canopies. Alongside the Kitchener rail corridor, an opening for a passage that will accommodate a future West Toronto Railpath extension can be seen, while construction materials are staged just to west at ground level.
By April, 2026, the mechanical penthouse was fully formed. The red brick envelope rose to the ninth floor, stopping below the 10th-floor step-back. Above, we see projecting balcony slabs, while a construction hoist is attached near the northeast corner.
Along the south elevation, window panels are advanced through the eighth floor, where a handful of openings await glazing. Black aluminum mullions and louvre panels are installed across completed facade sections. White weatherproofing covers exposed concrete on several higher floors on the vertical shear wall on the left. Below, a concrete crash wall separates the development from the Kitchener Rail Corridor, while in behind, cranes to the northwest mark where work is the ongoing for CAMH Queen Street redevelopment.
Looking east along King Street in May, 2026, brick cladding extends all the way to the 17th floor, while the rooftop slab remains in bare concrete. Glazing reaches the 11th floor. At street level, curtain wall installation is underway across the retail frontage, with insulation panels awaiting installation in select sections.
Earlier this month, the tower’s flatiron profile is seen prominently from further west along King Street. Weatherproofing surrounds window openings on the 14th floor. Temporary fencing lines the roof perimeter while the mechanical penthouse remains in exposed concrete.
More recently, we look to the building’s wider east elevation along Douro Street, contrasting with the flatiron bullnose to the west. Above the tenth floor step-back, two stacked columns of projecting balconies feature dark concrete soffits. Behind hoarding along Douro Street, portions of the ground floor remain in exposed concrete awaiting finishes where garage and servicing access will be located.
Upon completion, the 62.2m-tall building will deliver 298 purpose-built rental apartments, including six affordable rental units.
