Marlin Spring is leading the revolution of life in the Junction Triangle with its residential project at Campbell and Dupont.

316 Junction Condos is an example of the company’s ever-expanding urban portfolio in Toronto, which currently includes Curio on The Queensway, The Dawes in Danforth Village, and House of Assembly on Sterling Road. Its newest community, 316 Junction Condos will bring a 26-storey tower to a unique neighbourhood and will offer stunning views of the downtown core and south to the water. In addition to the 283 condo units, the building will be home to more than 12,000 sq. ft. of amenity space.

Architecture firm Giannone Petricone designed this project to fit within the neighbourhood’s eclectic charm, but also stand out in design. The area’s artistic roots are infused into the building’s design with a rustic patina. It was important that this community be a seamless addition to the Junction Triangle, which is known for its diverse social fabric, independent shops and restaurants and welcoming community atmosphere.

The materiality of the building exterior is echoed as you enter the lobby and are greeted with exposed concrete pillars, tiered benches, floor-to-ceiling windows and a concierge desk that sets the tone for the building. These design choices are a nod to the area’s history as a hub for railways and industrial manufacturing.

Once inside 316, the thoughtful amenities were masterfully designed by interior designer Truong Ly.

“When creating the design plan for 316 Junction Condos, the goal was to include materials that evoked a feeling of rawness – hence the concrete, dark wood and open ceilings seen throughout areas like the fitness centre,” says Truong Ly, principal and founder of Truong Ly Designs. “It was paramount that we honoured the Junction Triangle’s past as the neighbourhood is modernized through projects like this one from Marlin Spring.”

With 12,000 sq. ft. of amenities, there are options for residents of all ages to enjoy life at home. From the large fitness centre – naturally lit with long panelled windows – to the theatre room on the fifth floor, relaxation and wellness are always on the menu here. The 24-hour concierge, co-working space, games room, pet wash, outdoor barbecue and dining areas all add up to a comprehensive offering that embodies convenience and inclusivity. Residents will enjoy these spaces by themselves or with visitors.

Charming location meets convenience along Dupont

With positive scores for walking, biking and transit, 316 Junction Condos is primed for residents who enjoy living their lives locally but need to move beyond.

Dundas West Subway Station and Bloor GO Station provide easy access to the TTC, GO Transit and the UP Express. With these options available, as well as buses along Dupont, residents can always leave their cars at home. Whether they are commuting downtown towards Union Station or going to Pearson to catch a flight, there are few locations this connected to the transit system in Toronto.

The neighbourhood will be further connected through the construction of a new GO Station at Bloor and Lansdowne (different from the one with the UP Express), which will be part of the SmartTrack system. This additional station in the area will provide even more access to the city’s rapid transit, with the trains utilizing existing rail corridors.

Cyclists will love the access to the West Toronto Rail Path, a rail-to- project, similar to midtown’s Beltline, that can connect them to the southern termination of Sterling Road.

Closer to home, whether they are shopping for groceries, visiting an independent cafe, or dining out with family the options are as vast as they are unique.

There’s something special about the Junction Triangle

The Junction Triangle is known for residents staying for years, and the reasons aren’t difficult to see: The variety of diverse dining options and an intriguing collection of galleries make it easy to go out at night or on the weekend and enjoy the taste of the area. Within a large city, this is an enclave of arts, culture and welcoming neighbours.

At 316 Junction Condos, residents will have access to the city’s best spots – the bustle of downtown to the south, and the quiet, tree-lined streets of Pelham Park, Carleton Village and Earlscourt to the north.

Marlin Spring was founded in 2016 and currently has 55-plus projects in various stages of planning, sales or construction. The company prides itself on delivering quality homes and creating lasting value for homeowners in the GTA.

This year, Marlin Spring is bringing to life a pipeline rich with opportunity. From Danforth Village to The Queensway, Junction Triangle, Mississauga and the waterfront, as well as locations as quaint as Courtice, these exciting communities and innovative offerings are sure to keep Marlin Spring top of mind as the developer of choice.

316 Junction Condos features 283 residential suites ranging from 419 to 1,086 sq. ft.
