Nestled within the prime Bay Street Corridor neighbourhood and one of its first established condominiums, The Century Plaza (24 Wellesley Street W) has remained a pinnacle within this area of Toronto. The Century Plaza was completed back in 1991 through the visionary efforts of Barclay-Grayson Group (developer) and Burka Architects. This condominium’s exterior is timeless, with its cylindrical precast concrete & glass façade, it stands 29 storeys above the city streets below (tucked in-between Bay Street & Yonge Street on Wellesley Street). The Century Plaza possesses a podium (with highly convenient ground floor commercial spaces that offer a grocery store, dry cleaner, restaurant & bakery) and collectively, 349 condo units. The units range from studios (464 square feet) to 2 bedrooms and some penthouse suites (2304 square feet). There are a select few penthouse suites that have private terraces. The layouts provide a more spacious feeling, with floor to ceiling windows, hardwood flooring, up-to-date modern kitchens, sunrooms in lieu of balconies and lots of storage space. The 24th floor plays host to plentiful in-building amenities like a recreation/party room, indoor & outdoor hot tub, exercise room with a gym and sauna, library and the rooftop provides additional amenities with lake & city views. There is both 24-hour concierge and security services and parking garage/visitor parking spaces as well. The historical average PSF has shown the potential for and a steady rise for a positive return on investment. Tse Management oversees the daily needs of residents as well as the day to day operations of this condo building.Location means everything to urbanites when buying a new home, and The Century Plaza provides an excellent launching point each day from its position at 24 Wellesley Street, especially for buyers that want convenient access to TTC buses (bus stops are located within easily walking distance at Bay Street & Wellesley Street and at Wellesley Street & Yonge Street, with many residents just simply walking one block to pick up the TTC Wellesley subway station). For cyclists, there is a Bike Share Toronto station right at Bay Street & Phipps Street and at Wellesley Street & Maitland Terrace. One of the best aspects of convenience to homebuyers considering a purchase at The Century Plaza is its ‘walkable’ amenities! At the four corners of Wellesley Street & Yonge Street, buyers have a smorgasbord of cafes, restaurants, banks, LCBO, specialty shops, business services, hairdressers, convenience store and more! Just south of this condo is Breadalbane Park, East of Bay Park and a light sprinkling of amenities. A little northeast and still a walkable distance, sits the very enjoyable James Canning Gardens and to the east is Queens Park, University of Toronto and Philosopher’s Walk.Buyers who prefer to use their car to commute can use nearby Bloor Street east to pick up the on-ramp to the Don Valley Pkwy (heading north) offered at Danforth Avenue. Homebuyers are in proximity to the Toronto General Hospital (University Avenue), the Toronto Eaton Centre (Yonge Street & Dundas Street) and many galleries, museums and theatres.
