THE RECORD
SkyTower at Pinnacle One Yonge has topped out at 106 storeys and 351.85 metres -- 1,155 feet. It is the tallest residential building in Canada, the tallest building in Canada since late 2025, and the first residential building in North America to achieve 106 storeys. These are not marketing designations. They are structural facts, confirmed by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, and they place this building in a global conversation about what is possible at the upper limit of residential construction.
The height carries a specific reference point that every Torontonian understands instinctively. The CN Tower's main observation deck -- the LookOut Level, from which generations of residents and visitors have seen this city from above -- sits at 342 metres. SkyTower's upper floors rise to 351.85 metres. On the floors above the 100th, residents of SkyTower look out at a horizontal view that is roughly level with that observation deck. The city that most people pay to see from above is what those residents see from their living rooms.
THE ARCHITECTURE
SkyTower was designed by Hariri Pontarini Architects -- the same Toronto practice responsible for One Bloor, the National Holocaust Monument in Ottawa, and a body of civic and residential work that defines the upper register of Canadian architectural practice. The building's form was conceived as a 12-sided jewel: a glazed and tapered silhouette that transitions from a retail and hotel podium at the base into a sculpted tower above, with chamfered corners reducing wind loads at the building's most exposed upper floors.
The vertical fins that accentuate the tower's height are not decorative. They do structural work -- buttressing the balconies that connect the tower to its podium and managing the building's relationship with the wind loads that a 106-storey structure at the water's edge must contend with. The expanded curved corner glazing at each floor creates a visual connection between interior spaces and the surrounding cityscape that is especially pronounced on the upper floors, where the view encompasses not just the harbour and the lake but the entire arc of the Toronto skyline to the north.
Interiors are by Tanner Hill and Associates, whose specification throughout the building delivers floor-to-ceiling windows on every suite, open-plan layouts oriented toward the view, contemporary cabinetry, stone countertops, premium appliances, and spa-calibre bathrooms. The building's 80,000 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor amenity space -- one of the largest amenity programs in Canada -- anchors the residential offer in a scale of daily living infrastructure that few buildings anywhere in the country can match.
THE COLLECTIONS
SkyTower's 958 residences are organized into four collections that reflect the building's vertical character. The Signature Collection on floors 14 through 82 delivers the building's core residential offer: sophisticated suites with timeless design, floor-to-ceiling views across the lake and the downtown core, and the full amenity access that the building's 80,000 square feet of programming provides. The Landmark Collection on floors 83 through 88 marks the transition into the building's elevated tier: premium finishes and the view elevation that begins to separate these suites from what exists in the Toronto luxury market at any comparable price point.
The Vista Collection on floors 89 through 99 is where the building's height becomes the primary residential asset. At this elevation -- above the vast majority of Toronto's skyline, at and above the height of most of the buildings that were previously considered tall in this city -- the views are panoramic in a way that requires actual experience to understand. South to Lake Ontario and the islands. North along the full length of Yonge Street into the city's interior. East and west across a horizon that extends well beyond the city's boundaries on a clear day. These are suites that are bought for a view the way a penthouse on a different building is bought for a penthouse. The view is the primary thing.
The SkyVilla Collection on floors 100 through 104 is available by appointment only. Private estate-style residences within Canada's tallest residential building, at altitudes that have no residential equivalent in this country. This tier is not marketed through standard channels, and it is not purchased through standard processes.

LE MERIDIEN AND THE 106TH FLOOR
The lower 12 floors of SkyTower are occupied by the Le Meridien Toronto Pinnacle Hotel -- 220 rooms and the return of the Le Meridien brand to Canada for the first time in a generation. The hotel's amenity infrastructure is accessible to the building's residential owners, extending the service model beyond what a standalone residential building provides. This is the operational model that the Four Seasons Private Residences and the Ritz-Carlton Residences have established in Toronto's luxury condo market, and it is now arriving at the waterfront's most significant new address.
The crown of the building is a signature restaurant on the 106th floor -- the highest restaurant in Canada, positioned above the CN Tower's observation deck, with a 360-degree view that covers more of the country than any dining room has previously offered. The timeline for the restaurant's opening is being confirmed alongside the building's occupancy schedule. It will, when it opens, be the most elevated dining address in Canada's history.
THE AMENITIES
80,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenity space is a number that requires context. The Shore Club at Ten York -- one of the most praised amenity programs in the Toronto waterfront market -- occupies two full floors. The amenity program at SkyTower is built at a scale that reflects the building's 958 households and its position as a national landmark. The fitness program includes a state-of-the-art centre, a yoga studio, and the full range of programming that a building at this level requires. Indoor and outdoor pools. Lounge and entertainment spaces. A PATH connection to Union Station and the Financial District underground network.
The PATH connection is worth dwelling on. From the lobby of SkyTower, residents can access the entire Financial District, Union Station, and the GO train and VIA Rail network without stepping outside. For the resident who works in the Financial District and has chosen to live at the waterfront rather than in Yorkville or the midtown belt, the practical transit case for 1 Yonge Street is stronger than for almost any other address in the city.
THE LOCATION
1 Yonge Street sits at the foot of Yonge Street, where the city's longest street meets the lake. To the north: the entirety of Toronto along the Yonge corridor, stretching 56 kilometres to the city's northern boundary. To the south: Lake Ontario, the harbour, and the Toronto Islands. To the west: the Harbourfront Centre, Rees Street Park, and the waterfront promenade that extends to Bathurst and beyond. To the east: the Distillery District, the future East Harbour transit hub, and the Don River Park.
Union Station is a three-minute walk from the lobby. The Financial District is within the same walk. The Scotiabank Arena is five minutes east. The PATH network extends from the building's base into the entire underground city. Walk Score 94, Transit Score 100.
For the buyer who has been calibrating between the Yorkville luxury market and the waterfront, this is the building that resolves that calibration. Yorkville offers neighbourhood character and boutique scale. SkyTower offers an address, a view, and a height that are without peer in this country. They are different propositions for different buyers. Both are legitimate. Only one is Canada's tallest building.
OCCUPANCY AND AVAILABILITY
Occupancy at SkyTower begins in Fall 2026 with the lower residential floors. Mid and upper floor occupancy follows in late 2026 and early 2027. The SkyVilla Collection -- floors 100 through 104 -- is undergoing final inspections and handovers on a timeline to be confirmed. Building registration is expected in 2027, at which point the building transitions from pre-construction pricing to standard resale market pricing. The window between now and registration represents the final opportunity to purchase at current pricing in Canada's most significant residential address.
Suite sizes across the available inventory range from 520 to 1,785 square feet, with pricing across the standard collections from $743,900 to $3,209,990. The SkyVilla Collection is priced separately and available by appointment. Assignment opportunities exist across multiple floors for buyers who wish to acquire a suite that has already been contracted.
