L Tower

L Tower is a 58-story residential building rising 205 meters above Toronto's downtown skyline with a distinctive angular architectural form. The structure features glass-walled residential units and contains ten elevators along with three underground levels housing building facilities.

Architect Daniel Libeskind designed the tower, with construction beginning in 2009 and completion reached in 2015. The project faced several technical obstacles during its development.

The adjacent Sony Plaza features three sculptures by Canadian artist Harley Valentine honoring the National Ballet of Canada's connection to the area. These artworks shape how people experience the public space surrounding the tower.

The building features ten elevators providing access throughout the structure efficiently. Visitors should note that the distinctive angular architecture with glass facades shapes the experience of moving through and around the public areas.

The structure required specialized wind engineering assessments to understand how its angular shape interacts with aerodynamic forces. These engineering solutions were essential to making the building's unusual form possible.
