The Knitting Mill

426 Queen Street East

Finished in 1998 by Paul Dehaas, this real loft conversion from a warehouse is one that is authentic and open concept. Features that make it real lofty are the exposed brick walls, timber columns and beams, hardwood floors and 11 foot ceilings. 28 units are housed in this complex that range in size from 600 square feet studio units to 1200 square feet that have a number of bedrooms depending on the floor plan. Remembering the open concept feel, there are a variety of ways to set up these units, so very few units are alike. The Knitting Mill is located on Queen Street East between Parliament Street and River and is one of the most affordable downtown lofts. Prices start at $180,000 and range to around $350,000.
