The latest from E Condos
We know you’ve heard the buzz about the demolition happening at Yonge and Eglinton, but now you can see exactly what’s going on! Our amazing construction staff has been working hard to clean up one of Toronto’s most iconic corners and transform it into what will soon be the finished product of E Condos.
With such great weather, the crew has been able to demolish the grounds into a nice, flat surface and keep the whole area nearly spotless. As you can see in the photo above, there’s nearly no excess dirt on the sidewalks in front of our site.
With demolition continuing to progress on schedule, the process is slated to be complete by the end of July. Once this process is complete, the crew will start digging the hole and beginning the process of creating the parking garage.

Construction Starts at Yonge and Eglinton
Our own Veronika Belovich, Director of Sales and Marketing at Bazis, was interviewed about the start of construction at E Condos at Yonge and Eglinton for the most recent edition of Condo Guide Magazine! See the full story here and don’t forget to pick up the issue on newsstands now.
Bazis, Metropia and Riocan’s Highly Anticipated E Condos is Underway
E Condominiums, one of Toronto’s most talked about condo buildings, is about to remake the face of Yonge and Eglinton, changing the way that local residents, office workers and pedestrians will view this lively midtown neighbourhood.
With demolition of the existing buildings having just begun on this chic new condo project – a collaboration by three award-winning developers Bazis, Metropia and RioCan – area residents have their first glimpse of a new future for this iconic corner.
“With the start of construction we couldn’t be more excited for both the team and for our buyers,” says Veronika Belovich, Director of Sales and Marketing for Bazis. “E Condos is truly one of Toronto’s most distinctive new condo towers.”
Standing at 58 and 36 storeys, these residential towers will rise above Yonge and Eglinton, with units offering remarkable views of the city skyline and a public piazza at ground level bringing superb at-grade retail to this favoured midtown corner. TD Bank will occupy the ground floor of E Condos, with its brand new, state-of-the-art branch.
Designed by the award-winning architect Rosario Varacalli, and featuring the elegant and contemporary styling of designer Mike Niven of Mike Niven Interior Design, E Condos blends modern luxury with timeless elegance.
Suites at E Condos offer a sense of spaciousness thanks to the airy 9-foot ceiling heights and light-filled windows. Contemporary kitchens boast custom-designed cabinetry in a range of materials and colours, Euro-style appliances, quartz countertops and ultra-fashionable backsplashes.
Purchasers can choose from one bedroom, one-bedroom-with-den, two bedroom and two-bedroom-plus-den plans, some with terraces, from 514 to 1,240 square feet, and priced from the mid $300,000s.
A dynamic amenity program occupies the 4th and 31st floors, and includes gourmet kitchens and dining rooms, party lounges, technology lounges, exquisite outdoor terraces with barbecues, dining area, sunbathing beds, bar and lounge areas. The state-of-the-art fitness area includes weights, cardio, yoga and boxing studios.
Among E’s most amazing features, the 31st floor boasts a swimming pool, sauna, change rooms, bar and seating area cantilevered over the street below, and distinguished within a red glass frame which juts out from the building’s façade, providing unsurpassed views of the city below.
“Now is the time to become part of one of Toronto’s most popular neighbourhoods,” says Veronika Belovich. “Residents will be in the midst of a flourishing locale filled with bustling cafes and restaurants, chic retail shops and modern movie theatres – and will be able to access many of these amenities without having to go outdoors, thanks to the condominium’s planned underground connections.”
And while the area just outside its front doors offers a mix of the city’s best shopping, dining and entertainment options, E’s direct access to both the TTC’s Yonge subway line and the planned Eglinton Crosstown LRT puts everything the city has to offer – from the lake to the 905, and from Mississauga to Scarborough – within easy reach.

E Condos Demolition Update
It’s out with the old and in with the new at Yonge and Eglinton! We’ve been waiting for our shovels to break ground for a long time and we’re so pleased to announce that demolition has begun. Check out some photos from the site.
As you can see, demolition is progressing nicely and our site just keeps getting deeper!
