Lavish Toronto condo in building Drake once lived hits market for $8.4 million

One unit in Drake's former luxurious Yorkville building at 1 St. Thomas Street just recently hit the market at a whopping $8.4 million, making it one of the most expensive condominiums currently for sale in Toronto. 

The 29-storey condominium building and its adjoining townhouses are located at the corner of St. Thomas Street and Charles Street, which is just a short distance from Toronto's most luxurious shopping street, the Mink Mile
