Toronto’s skyline is about to gain a new architectural feature, with the planned development of Q Tower. This will be a striking 60-storey residential building that brings a blend of modern sophistication and urban elegance to the central waterfront, with an occupancy date of January 2029. Developed by Lifetime Developments, this iconic tower captures the essence of contemporary design with its dramatic dark exterior and dynamic zigzag balconies. Q Tower aims to deliver an unmatched living experience at the heart of one of the city’s most desirable areas.
Coveted Location on the Waterfront
The Q Tower is situated in Toronto’s vibrant Harbourfront Queens Quay neighbourhood, where city life meets nature. With lush parks and 26 kilometres of scenic walking and biking trails along the waterfront, residents will have direct access to outdoor recreation, while being steps away from cultural landmarks such as the Harbourfront Centre and Queen’s Quay Terminal. The area is also a bustling hub for arts, entertainment, and leisure, featuring year-round festivals, concerts, and markets.
Living at Q Tower places residents in the center of Toronto’s dynamic waterfront redevelopment, an area that has attracted $13.2 billion in private investment. This revitalization includes 43 hectares of new public spaces and parks, further adding to the appeal of Q Tower’s location. Q Tower connects residents to one of North America’s largest urban redevelopment projects, which has created 37,000 existing jobs, with 10,000 more on the way.
A Last Opportunity to Own Waterfront Real Estate
Q Tower offers a unique chance to own a piece of Toronto’s central waterfront. With very limited new condo supply in the area due to the dwindling availability of land, the tower stands out as one of the few new developments available that can provide this. Most condos in the central waterfront are already over 20 years old, and Q Tower’s modern design, high-quality materials, and state-of-the-art amenities provide a rare level of luxury that differentiates this property.
For investors, the lack of competition in high-quality rental units further enhances the property’s appeal. The waterfront’s high demand for rental housing, coupled with price growth, makes Q Tower a prime investment opportunity. As the last major residential addition to this part of the waterfront, the project is poised to benefit from both residential demand and the continued development of the area’s entertainment, office, and public infrastructure.
Architectural Excellence
Designed to be as functional as it is beautiful, Q Tower offers 900 thoughtfully designed suites with stunning views of Toronto’s skyline and waterfront.
Superior Amenities
The building provides residents with 27,000 square feet of premium amenities, making it a true urban sanctuary.
Some of the standout amenities include a 24-hour concierge service, EV charging stations, a co-working space, and a variety of fitness and wellness options including a cardio and weights room, a yoga and stretch area, and an outdoor fit zone. For social and recreational activities, residents can enjoy the outdoor dining terrace, theatre room, private dining areas, and an outdoor lounge perfect for gatherings. Families will benefit from dedicated spaces like a kids’ outdoor playground, while pet owners will appreciate the nearby green spaces and ample walking trails.
Q Tower is designed to offer the ultimate in convenience and comfort. With dedicated storage rooms, bicycle storage, a mail room, and laundry facilities, every aspect of day-to-day living has been carefully considered. The inclusion of a pickleball court, massage room, and a luxurious Q Lounge further highlights the building’s commitment to offering a lifestyle of relaxation and recreation.
Key Details and Timeline
Q Tower offers a range of suite sizes from 346 to 917 square feet, with configurations from studio to three-bedroom units, featuring one to two bathrooms. Pricing starts at $602,000, making it an attractive option for urban living in Toronto’s prime waterfront location.
Q Tower has an anticipated occupancy date of January 2029; more information, including projected returns on investment, can be found on Investor’s Playbook.
Connectivity and Transportation
One of Q Tower’s biggest advantages is its proximity to Toronto’s top transit hubs. Located just a five-minute walk from Union Station, residents will enjoy seamless access to the UP Express (reaching Pearson International Airport in 25 minutes), the TTC subway (with two-minute service along Line 1 Yonge-University), and GO train services connecting them to every major city in Ontario.
The upcoming Waterfront East Light Rail Line will be just a four-minute walk away, further enhancing the ease of commuting throughout Toronto. Additionally, residents will have access to Toronto’s underground PATH system, an extensive 30-kilometre network of pedestrian walkways that links office towers, shops, services, and entertainment venues in the downtown core.
