Rising side by side on Parliament Street immediately southwest of Toronto’s Distillery District, No. 31 Condos is rising above the ground while The Goode Condos approaches topping off. Designed by architects—Alliance for Graywood Developments, Goode Condos is now at its mechanical penthouse with 33 residential floors formed. Adjacent next door to the south, No. 31 Condos is designed by Arquitectonica with Arcadis as Architect of Record for Lanterra Developments and Westdale Properties, where a Committee of Adjustment approval in February, 2025 has added 5 more floors and 39 residential units, bringing the building’s eventual height to 46 storeys and nearly 154 metres. UrbanToronto’s last update on both developments was in November, 2024.
Seen below in the marketing rendering when it was to be 41 storeys tall, the extra five storeys at No. 31 will be added to the uppermost volume of the tower, which follows a tiered massing concept with four volumes that decrease in floor-plate size as the building rises. The approved Minor Variance also slightly reduces amenity space and parking requirements in exchange for a $300,000 contribution toward local parkland, public realm improvements, and community services. These funds could go to upgrades for David Crombie Park, the Parliament Street underpass, or other nearby public amenities.
In the northwest-facing view below from February, 2025, the podium section of No. 31 (left) has been formed, with its double-height ground floor and part of its second floor protected by a thick crash wall to the south, ready to handle any eventuality from the adjacent rail corridor. Behind it, Goode Condos is nearing its final height, with glazing and cladding largely installed on the tower, save for the top few floors. Where we see orange tarp up top, the final residential floors are being formed. To the right, Goode Condos’ podium is sealed in against the weather, brick exterior in place between window panels. At ground level, curtainwall has been installed along Goode Condos’ east elevation, wrapping around the north side, enclosing future retail and lobby spaces.
In the northeast-facing view below, formwork is still in place for the uppermost floor of the podium, while stepped back slightly are walls and columns for the first floors of the next section. A red concrete boom pump stands just to the right of the crane. At grade, blue weatherproofing wraps around concrete columns along Parliament Street, while to the left, construction materials are staged beside both podiums. Tucked in behind somewhat, Goode Condos’ west elevation is advancing, with the south elevation featuring newly installed glass balcony guards on two floors above the podium.
In the north-facing view below, Goode Condos stands with 32 floors formed and active formwork on the 33rd, where wooden forms are in place for the next concrete pour. Glazing and cladding are largely installed up to the 27th floor, with glass balcony guards now in place on three floors. In the foreground, No. 31’s podium is all but completely formed, with a concrete parapet wall at the east end where an outdoor terrace will sit atop the five-storey base.
In the southeast-facing view below from this month, Goode Condos stands nearly topped off, with ongoing work on its mechanical penthouse. At grade, white tarp covers sections of the ground floor, awaiting the installation of curtain wall panels and cladding. To the right, just the west end of No. 31 can be seen, with formwork and decking is in place for the sixth floor, while additional formwork rises above for the first elements of the seventh floor.
Upon completion, The Goode Condos will stand 111.4m with 557 residential units, while No. 31 Condos will now rise to 153.63m with 467 units.
