Located in the heart of the East Core’s Garden District – the epicentre of technology, education, business, dining, shopping and nightlife – PRIME is where it all comes together.
Community & Neighbourhood
Its prime location in Toronto’s East Core Garden District community is precisely what earns this project its name – PRIME caters to every taste and has something to offer everyone. This busy and vibrant busy downtown area is named for Allan Gardens, a park with a glass-domed plant conservatory and botanical garden. Often referred to as a walker’s paradise, it only takes a few minutes of exploring on foot to truly understand what makes PRIME Condos and its location a stellar opportunity to experience downtown living.
Shopping & Retail
From one-off boutiques to massive shopping complexes, the Garden District is just steps away from whatever your taste or desire. Take a stroll to the Eaton Centre, or continue exploring Toronto’s massive PATH underground network, with its roughly 30 kilometres of walkways, 1,200 shops and services and links to major attractions. The bustling Yonge street corridor with its unique boutiques, tourist shops, cafes and abundant shopping options is a few short blocks over. Shopping complexes at Yonge-Dundas square offers an array of retail options. There’s no shortage of choice here.
Parks & Recreation
The Garden District earns its name from the beautiful Allan Gardens, with its botanical gardens and glass-domed conservatory it’s no wonder why many newlyweds stop here to take photos.

Arena Gardens is a small park nearby, featuring an ornamental fountain and children’s playground.
