The Junction Triangle has become one of Toronto’s most sought-after west-end neighbourhoods, shaped by its industrial heritage, character high streets, and exceptional connectivity.

The West Toronto Railpath runs alongside a growing collection of cafés, studios, breweries, and local businesses, while nearby communities, including Wallace Emerson, Bloordale Village, and Corso Italia, continue to attract residents looking for a neighbourhood with both character and convenience.

Now, a new residential community is reimagining what rental living can look like in the Junction Triangle.

Developed by Tricon Living in partnership with a major Canadian Pension fund, The Spoke introduces 398 purpose-built rental homes at Dupont Street and Symington Avenue, bringing together design excellence, signature amenities, elevated services, and resident-focused programming in one of Toronto’s fastest-evolving communities. 

According to City of Toronto data, 41 per cent of households in The Junction are renters, and more than half live in apartments. As the neighbourhood has evolved, so too have renters’ expectations, with growing demand for larger suites, flexible workspaces, and elevated amenities. 

Award-winning design team behind The Spoke 

Tricon Living has collaborated with some of Canada’s most celebrated architects and designers to bring the project to life. The result is a community that balances contemporary residential architecture with a strong connection to its industrial past.

Designed by TACT Architecture, with Graziani + Corazza Architects serving as Architect of Record and landscape architecture by Site/C Landscape Architecture, the development introduces both a neighbourhood-scaled presence and a distinctive new landmark on Symington Avenue. 

Landscape architect Site/C uses terraces, pathways, and planted edges to soften the architecture and create visual and physical connections between the building, surrounding streets, and the broader community.

Inside, award-winning designer Johnson Chou brings a warm residential sensibility to the amenity spaces. Exposed concrete and hot-rolled metal screens are balanced with walnut wood, textured finishes, and earthy tones inspired by a 1970s palette. The lobby is anchored by a sunken lounge with a glazed fireplace and circular sofa, while custom details—including a spoke-inspired ceiling sculpture and commissioned artwork by Toronto artist Adrian Forrow—create spaces that feel both refined and welcoming. 

Meeting the demand for family-friendly rentals 

The Spoke was designed around a growing reality in Toronto: more people are choosing rental living for longer periods of their lives.

The building offers a collection of one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences, with nearly half of all units designed with two- and three-bedroom layouts—a deliberate decision in a market where larger rental homes are relatively uncommon. Many suites also incorporate enclosed dens and flexible spaces that can accommodate work, study, or family life as needs evolve over time.

Inside the homes, design and functionality work hand in hand. Italian-crafted kitchens, built-in islands and wine fridges, quartz countertops, and integrated smart-home technology create spaces that feel both refined and practical, with details designed to support everyday living.

That same flexibility extends into Tricon Living’s signature amenities. Co-working environments such as The Node and The Sanctuary provide alternatives to both traditional offices and in-suite work arrangements, responding to the reality that work today often moves seamlessly between home and elsewhere. 

Dedicated family amenities, including a children's playroom designed for younger residents, further support a growing number of households choosing rental living for the long term. Together, these spaces allow the community to evolve alongside residents' needs. 

Resort-style amenities come to the Junction Triangle 

Drawing inspiration from the hospitality industry, The Spoke includes more than 26,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenity space—integrated throughout the community and providing spaces that support wellness, productivity, recreation, and connection.

The outdoor experience is anchored by The Cove, a resort-inspired pool and terrace that offers areas for swimming, gathering, and relaxing throughout the year. Indoors, Club Apex provides a commercial-grade fitness facility with dedicated strength, cardio, yoga, and spin studios, while The Cove Spa introduces a wellness-focused environment complete with a sauna and cold plunge.

Additional amenities include a theatre, music and karaoke studio, sports lounge, recreation spaces, and family-focused rooms, creating opportunities for residents to connect, recharge, and spend time together without leaving the community. 

The Vault taps into the neighbourhood's cycling culture 

Among the building’s most distinctive features is The Vault, a state-of-the-art cycling hub that speaks directly to the character of the Junction Triangle.

The Junction has one of the highest rates of cycling commuting in Toronto and sits alongside the West Toronto Railpath, one of the city’s key transportation corridors. Residents can access the Railpath just moments from home, connecting south toward downtown on a largely trafficfree route. High Park and the Humber River trail network are also nearby, providing recreational connections across the city.

The Spoke builds on the DNA of the neighbourhood with The Vault: a unique amenity that offers secure storage, high-security lockers, repair and washing stations, and accommodation for cargo bikes.

The Spoke is now leasing one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes. Visit Tricon Living to learn more.
