An article in Urban Toronto states that while the new mixed-use development will host office and retail spaces in its podium, it will also have a renovated 1906-built grain elevator and mill that will house a new daycare facility.
The IBI Group-designed development will feature suites with 9 foot ceilings and laminate flooring. It will also have a U31-designed lobby which will offer 24 hour concierge service next to a mail and parcel room.
Unique to The Dawes is its heritage, 3 storey, 1906 grain elevator and mill at 10 Dawes Road, a renovation which will incorporate it into the overall development and turn it into a brand new daycare facility just steps from the front doors.
The Main Street subway station will be a block away and the new east entrance to Danforth GO station will be even closer and will make it very easy to get to the downtown core.
