World Trade Centre

World Trade Centre, Postmodern skyscraper complex in Harbourfront, Canada

The World Trade Centre Toronto is a postmodern condominium complex of two joined towers near the Harbourfront. The North East Tower at 10 Yonge Street rises 38 floors to about 113 m, while the South West Tower at 10 Queens Quay West reaches 27 floors and about 81 m. The taller tower has a stepped grey and green glass roof, beige mullions around green-blue windows, projecting balconies, and a white podium with glass storefronts and a canopy; signs above the entrance read "XI", "GALAXY", and "LOUNGE". Together the towers hold about 700 units.

Construction of this complex began in the late 1980s and finished in 1990, representing an early step in transforming the waterfront into a residential neighborhood. The project helped shift downtown living from older low-rise buildings toward modern high-rise residential development.

The name recalls the World Trade Centre in New York, though the Toronto complex is purely residential above its ground-floor shops. Its two towers hold 407 units at 10 Yonge Street and 292 at 10 Queens Quay West, and residents step out toward the Harbourfront.

The location sits next to major transit stops and offers direct access to shops, restaurants, and other downtown services nearby. Visitors can explore the public waterfront area and enjoy good connections to other parts of the city center.

The development was first planned as two condominium towers plus three office towers north of the site. The market correction of the early 1990s shelved the offices, and only the two residential towers were built. The Pinnacle Centre now occupies the land intended for those offices.
