Foundary Lofts

foundry_lofts_thumbnail.jpgAnother interesting loft development, this one a conversion of an industrial building rather than a new building. The Foundry Lofts being built near Dupont and Lansdowne in a building where train locomotives were once built. The Post had this to say:

Lorbeth Developments is converting an old foundry building — where locomotives were once made — into Foundry Lofts, a condominium project with 104 loft-style units. The site will feature one- to three-storey suites, as well as a 16,000-square-foot atrium that will be a key feature of the building, offering buyers a central gathering space.

I’ll be watching this one closely as I really like the idea of converting an existing building, with real character, over building something new.

    Can you please elaborate? I know it used to be a old train station.

    Janice: I assume you’re asking Joe to elaborate on the comment about contaminated land? I don’t have any details on that one way or the other, and did consider deleting Joe’s comment as it is distinctly short on detail or evidence for the statement. A link or two would have gone a long way to making it more useful.
