The Foundry is an authentic hard loft conversion of a 19th century train factory located on the South West corner of Davenport & Lansdowne. There is nothing cookie cutter about this development. Upon entering, visitors will be blown away by the 16000 sqft atrium with ridiculously high ceilings. Completed in the summer of 2008, Foundry Lofts contain 104 units of various sizes with mostly 2-storey units. The original character of these units varies from loft to loft. Some units feel like newly constructed townhomes while others offer true loft character with loads of original brick. The finishes are generally middle of the road unless upgraded by subsequent owners. The neighbourhood offers great value and is considered up & coming.
