Overview
The SoHo Lofts is definitely unique, and for more reasons than just one. To begin, this hard loft conversion is located outside of downtown Toronto, in the slower-paced Mount Pleasant neighbourhood. What’s more, rather than being converted from an industrial building, loft owners at 188 Eglinton Ave East now live where business was once done.
This rare and distinctive building is ideal for those looking for a true hard loft in the heart of mid-town Toronto. Converted in 1998, the first residents of the SoHo lofts might have been ahead of the curve, but current owners are really able to reap the benefits of this prime location thanks to its recent growth.
The exclusivity at 188 Eglinton Ave East is accentuated by the fact that only 88 Toronto lofts can be found at this address. Those interested in living at the SoHo Lofts will have to act fast when a unit appears on the market, as Toronto condos for sale here are very appealing, especially when considering the enticing amenities offered to residents: a gym, sauna, and even a golf cage are available for use.
Additionally, a rooftop terrace makes for an ideal place to curl up with a book, while parking spots are available for an additional cost. Speaking of cost, prospective buyers interested in all of these amenities should be aware that the maintenance fees are not some of the lowest in Toronto.
As for the building’s style, it falls somewhere in between the traditional condo and historical hard lofts. Thanks to its lack of a manufacturing-based history, raw industrial elements are far and few between. However, that loft-like ambiance is certainly present.

Share of occupied homes, by the era they were built in. Bars are drawn against the busiest era, not against each other, because the eras are not the same length. The eight shares are unlikely to total exactly 100: Statistics Canada rounds each era's count to the nearest 5 before publishing it, so we print what the census reports rather than adjusting a figure to make the column add up.
