Marlin Spring Developments’ House of Assembly has topped off in Toronto’s Junction Triangle. This 17-storey mixed-use building, located south of Bloor Street at 201 Sterling Road, is situated within of the Sterling Master Plan redevelopment area. Most of its cladding and glazing are also now in place, capturing positive reviews from many UrbanToronto Forum users. It is just a 10-minute walk southeast of Dundas West and Bloor GO/UPX stations and an 8-minute stroll to the future Bloor-Lansdowne GO station planned at the southwest corner of Bloor Street West and St Helens Avenue.
UrbanToronto last provided an update in June, 2024, when work was ongoing for the final residential levels of the high-rise designed by Graziani + Corazza Architects.
A month later, this southeast view offers a clear view of the west elevation, where brick panel cladding now extends up to the 10th floor. The first two levels feature sandstone-coloured panels facing the street, including around the entrance to the parking garage at the centre. A construction hoist is in operation at the northeast end of the building, where a projecting volume articualtes the massing.
In August, 2024, a distant view southward over the Barrie GO line showcases the stepped pattern of the cladding ascending seven storeys next to the railway, where a crash wall provides safety resilience adjacent to the tracks. Brick cladding has reached the 10th floor on the north side, and the 12th floor closer to the west side. Closer to the camera, we see tower cranes — one hidden behind the closest one — for Catalyst at 77 Wade.
This month, we look to the south elevation of the now topped off House of Assembly. The dual extended volumes feature brick panelling completed up to the 14th floor on the left and the 15th floor on the right. Rows of windows feature black mullions and spandrel panels contrasting the masonry. The central recessed section’s extensive glazing is visible up to the 12th floor. Overhead, the tower crane is hoisting materials to the top of the building. The bare concrete of the mechanical penthouse rises in the upper right corner.
In this view looking east from Sterling Road and Perth Avenue, the fully clad upper levels of the west elevation rise above the open first two floors. That area will include a retail lobby to the left and a retail entrance in the centre. To the left, the top six floors at the northeast section of the building await cladding adjacent to the hoist. The parking lot on the north side of the House of Assembly is planned as a future public pathway leading north to Bloor-Lansdowne GO station.
House of Assembly rises to a height of 61.85m and will add 266 residential units to the Junction Triangle.
