DUKE is an engaging 8 storey building, located in the Junction, at Dundas and Keele, Toronto, Canada. Find more information at https://home.ca/for-sale/toronto
Imagined by TAS, and created by Quadrangle Architects, DUKE is a bold gesture that brings a modern sensibility to the retro neighbourhood, but in a way that both respects and complements the existing streetscape.
The building’s articulated façade plays with geometric patterns. Cantilevered living spaces carve out intimate balconies and terraces that meet expansive glazed windows. A double-height retail space on the main floor animates Dundas West with convenient neighbourhood retail.
On the north side, DUKE stands tall, projecting a confident presence on the vibrant street. On the south side, sun-filled terraces gradually step down, creating a softer façade with unobstructed views of the Junction neighbourhood. And up top, terraces wrap around single and two-storey penthouse suites, offering a phenomenal perspective of the city.
