Developed and finished by the Metro Ontario Group in 1999/2000, the Candy Factory is perhaps Toronto’s most notorious condominium development. Graced with spectacular natural loft qualities and classic industrial architecture, this building was destined for greatness. The Candy Factory is a massive century old warehouse encompassing an entire city block at Queen St. W and Shaw Street that was once the Cede Candy Co. Factory (rockets & Fizzies). 121 large lofts are housed over six storeys, ranging from 800 Sq. ft to almost 4000 Sq. ft. typically; ceiling heights are a lofty 12ft. high. Most penthouses feature 2 levels and large terraces off the second level. Other features of the Candy Factory include real hardwood strip flooring, some exposed brick, mezzanine bedrooms, exposed fir columns and beams, exposed wood ceilings, floating spiral ductwork and granite counters just to name but a few. Due to its massive size the Candy Factory offers a 24 hr. concierge, party room, a guest suite, fitness room, roof terraces and phenomenally wide hallways. Prices range from $325,000 to $1,400,000. Condo fees are a reasonable mid 35¢ per sqft (hydro extra).
