1 min read
American flexible workplace operator and private office supplier Industrious officially announced its Canadian expansion, with plans to open its first location in Toronto.
Slated for an official opening in September of 2022, the new Industrious location will take over the former WeWork space inside the 17-storey mixed-use building at 33 Bloor St. East in Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood. To be designated as “Industrious - Yonge & Bloor,” the location will offer more than 450 seats across a whopping 36,000 sq. ft of office space. Not only will this location be steps away from Yonge Street, but the Bloor Street tower, where it will be taking up primary residence, has direct access to the Yonge/Bloor subway station creating a seamless journey for busy commuters.
Regarding the company’s expansion North of the US border, Sam Segal, the Director of Real Estate at Industrious, stated, “This new location allows us to plant our first flag in Toronto, one of the top-performing office markets in all of North America, and a market our existing network of enterprise members has been asking us to expand into for years.”
Like other flexible workplace companies, Industrious locations typically feature rentable office spaces for individuals and teams and shared common areas like meeting rooms and phone booths.
