DescriptionDo you remember the Sears building downtown?
Well, this is its new incarnation!
Walk to work downtown, or walk to the Dundas subway station and tube it almost anywhere central within 10 minutes.
Or, hop on the streetcar on Dundas and "red rocket" it across the city.
Want to grab a bite to eat? You have Kubo Restaurant right in your building (and yes, there's room service), tons of eateries along Church Street, along Jarvis, along Yonge Street and along Dundas. You won't have to look hard to
find restaurants ranging from cheap and cheerful to expensive and elegant.

More on the building at www.merchandisebuilding.ca. The building itself is the historic Sears Catalogue Warehouse, and was converted into a 550+ loft/condo complex in 2000. Now it is home to over 1000 people and dozens of businesses,it may provide free and password accessible WiFi to the building's rooftop in the summer months.

Neighbourhood Features Of This Community

When it's time to grocery shop, you need only go to the first floor of the building to shop in the Dominion there. What could be easier?
There's movie theatres in the Eaton Centre at Yonge and Dundas and more eclectic flicks at The Carlton, just east of Yonge and Carlton.
And shopping -- WOW! Choose to trod the same main streets that we mentioned for restaurants and don't forget the Eaton Centre, the Bay at Yonge and Queen and what will soon be some fabulous shopping in the new Dundas Square, which is being developed at Yonge and Dundas.

If live theatre is your cup of tea, you'll be within walking distance of the historic and beautiful Winter Garden and Elgin theatres on Yonge.
The theatre district is also just a quick subway or cab ride away, along with the city's hottest night clubs and night spots.
Just take a moment to consider all the time that you now spend to commute to work, or to shopping, or to your leisure time activities.

Many years ago this building look so old and ugly,due to major renovation and wonderful effort to restored its original beauty and converted to a residential loft.It could be a nice place to live in this massive building surrounded with wall to wall glass window.

I recommend this place.

Oddly, I wrote that piece elsewhere, and its been screen scraped and added to this site. I am *not* the contact person for the building. I own 1 loft there, and I still love the Merch.

I recommend this place.
