The Candy Factory Lofts

993 Queen St West

Pour some sugar on me — this is one sweet address. It’s historically known for its production of rocket candy. To showcase the building’s history, the concierge keeps these candies in one of the biggest bowls I’ve ever seen for guests and residents to enjoy.
