On the corner of Queen and Larchmount, a familiar site has taken on a new shape. For years, the 7-Eleven sat there quietly - a place people passed through, not a place they thought about. Today, that same corner holds a six-storey brick building that feels unexpectedly at home in Leslieville.

Working with Superkül, the building was shaped to follow the rhythm of the street: brick that shifts in tone, step-backs that soften its edges, a massing that respects the low-rise homes behind it.

Before construction, Hullmark partnered with Project Gallery on a meanwhile leasing program converting the one time convenience store into an art Gallery. Featuring a mural by Kent Monkman and a signage installation by Micah Lexier, the converted space hosted the community in a different context than before. Hullmark and Project Gallery worked together on the art program for the building once completed.

“It wasn’t about building big, but about building right.”

Now complete, 115 Larchmount, was Hullmark’s first purpose built rental building. The 47 unit building is heated and cooled by geothermal technology reducing the reliance on fossil fuels. Inside, the building reflects the neighbourhood’s craft DNA. Custom terrazzo flecked with metal inlays. Eclectic tile patterns. Smoked-oak millwork that wraps even the mailboxes.

“Every detail was a chance to make daily life feel intentional.”

- Jeff Hull, President & CEO, Hullmark

Upstairs, the tenant lounge opens directly to a rooftop terrace with views of Lake Ontario and the skyline. It’s a place to read, host, or just say hello to someone you haven’t met yet. Community, in its quiet form.

The building has earned both Grands Prix du Design Gold and the 2025 REX Award for Multi-Residential Development of the Year.

115 Larchmount doesn’t announce itself. It settles in - rooted in Leslieville’s history, shaped by patience, and designed for people who make this neighbourhood what it is.
