ROQ City - The Quinn & The Richie

Toronto, ON

Bordered by Richmond, Ontario, and Queen Streets, ROQ City is a dynamic mixed-use development that reimagines a 1.8-acre site in Toronto’s Moss Park neighbourhood. The project introduces a bold architectural presence that amplifies the cultural and historical character of the area.

Comprising two residential towers—The Quinn and The Richie—rising to 24 and 33 storeys respectively, ROQ City will deliver 859 purpose-built rental units. The towers are carefully set back to preserve and celebrate the retained 19th-century warehouse façades, formerly home to piano and organ factories. These heritage elements form an animated retail base, contributing to a layered and expressive streetscape.

The project will introduce 70,000 square feet of curated retail, including large-format and micro-retail spaces, and a music-inspired laneway called Electric Avenue that will bisect the site. A half-acre public park will anchor the development, offering a moment of openness and connection within the dense urban fabric. Resort-quality amenities including a rooftop pool and terrace, community gardens, coworking studios, music rooms, and spa-inspired spaces, will foster creativity, connection, and wellbeing.

Bordered by Richmond, Ontario, and Queen Streets, the development introduces an urban presence that celebrates the past while shaping the future. Two elegant towers anchor a dynamic streetscape animated by retail, public space, and history reborn.

Strategically positioned near the Financial District, Distillery District, and future Moss Park Station on the Ontario Line, ROQ City is deeply embedded in a rapidly evolving urban context. It will offer seamless access to transit, bike infrastructure, and a vibrant network of cultural destinations, establishing a new neighbourhood identity rooted in authenticity, heritage, and vitality.
