The Qwest

BUILDING DESCRIPTION:
The Qwest is simply Downtown Convenience! Located at the North-West corner of Richmond and Simcoe Street, this 14-storey contemporary residence is just steps away from all the "action", transportation and shopping. Those seeking a vibrant neighbourhood will love the walking distance to Queen Street, CN Tower, Princess of Whales Theatre, Toronto City Hall or the Eaton Centre. These are condominiums with a difference located in the heart of the entertainment district!
