Verge at 1001 The Queensway is located in the Islington-City Centre West neighbourhood in Toronto. Fronting on a large block that houses Cineplex’s flagship Queensway Cinemas (and its massive parking lot), the Milestones, Montana’s Cookhouse, as well as Kelsey’s restaurants do a strong business. RioCan strives to put the site to better use.

The 588-unit development would include 31,000+ of retail area while fronting onto The Queensway—indicating that any of the restaurants or the bank onsite could return after construction—while a green space is planned in between the two four-storey podium structures. The residential lobbies for each building would be located at the south end of the podiums “in order to ensure an activated pedestrian realm along The Queensway” with new retail, the Planning Rationale states.
As currently proposed, the residential unit mix would include 69 studios (11.7%), 280 one-bedroom + den (47.6%), 227 two bedroom + den (38.7%), as well as 12 three-bedroom + den suites (2%). A two-level underground parking garage will feature a total of 591 vehicle spaces, which would be divided into 475 residential as well as 116 visitor/commercial spaces. 442 bicycle spaces are also proposed.
