Leaside Towers

The Leaside Towers are the tallest buildings in East York, Toronto, Canada. They are a twin set of apartment towers, with one facing north-south, and another facing east-west. Located at 85 Thorncliffe Park Drive near Overlea, they are the biggest section of the "East York Skyline". Their structural height is 129 m (423 ft), and they both have 44 floors. Their construction ended in 1970. Although their location is not in a prime residential area of Toronto, it provides panoramic views of Toronto's skyline and the Don Valley. This is why they chose to include large penthouses in these buildings. The building has a fitness centre, an indoor swimming pool, a car wash and a convenience store.
