The Well

Spread over seven and a half acres, and just down the street from BrainStation’s Toronto campus, The Well is set to make a large impact on the already tech-focused King West neighborhood. The mixed-use project, which is already under construction, includes five residential towers and two office buildings.

In all, the development will provide:

1.1-million-square-feet of office space
500,000-square-feet of retail space
1,700 condo and apartment units
A 35,000-square-foot glass canopy atop open-air walkways
A thermal energy storage facility
40- to 60-feet wide pedestrian street corridors and walkways

Set for completion in 2022, the project has already secured two big-name tenants: e-commerce platform Shopify, which has announced a $500 million investment to take over the project’s signature office tower at the corner of Front and Spadina; and Spaces, the Amsterdam-based co-working office company, will have over 127,158-sq-feet of office space in the project’s second office tower.
