The Berczy - St. Lawrence Market - Toronto




Coming soon to the St Lawrence Market neighbourhood by Concert Properties:


The Berczy.

Yet another boutique building designed to be both modern yet keeping in line with it’s surrounding buildings, The Berczy will no doubt be a very welcome addition to the St Lawrence area. I am predicting prices around $575-$600 PSF for this project. London on the Esplanade is currently selling in the $550 PSF range. Concert Properties is a very active developer outside Ontario, but this is their first solo project I am aware of in Toronto.

When I meet with a buyer for the first time and ask them what neighbourhoods are highest on their wishlist, inevitably the St Lawrence Market area is in the top-3. Don’t look now but the St Lawrence market area is one of the hottest and most desirable downtown. In some ways the area is now starting to realize the potential it has had for the last 200 years to be one of Toronto’s truly great neighbourhoods. For the better part of the last 25 years the area has been mostly known as a tourist destination and unfortunately, as a home to several low-income and co-operative housing buildings. With the addition of London on the Esplanade, L-Tower, and now the Berczy, things are looking up for the St Lawrence Market.

The somewhat odd name is presumably from the name of the park which will be directly across the street from the building and directly west of the famous Flat Iron building.
