The St. Clair, 10 Delisle Ave: Yonge-St. Clair with Heat and Parking In

The St. Clair is the building I point to when someone wants Yonge and St. Clair without paying for a brand-new tower or giving up a bundled fee. It is a 2004 Barclay-Grayson mid-rise of 226 suites on a short side street, with heat, cooling and parking included and a hotel-style lobby that still reads as the real thing. The question is not whether the location works. It is whether the building has kept up with its age. I’m Jatin Dua, RE/MAX Quantum Realty.

Delisle Avenue is a street of early-2000s mid-rises, and that helps you

Delisle runs west off Yonge just north of St. Clair, and within one short block it holds three condominiums built within four years of each other: 33 Delisle (2002, 108 suites), The St. Clair at 10 Delisle (2004, 226 suites) and The Carlyle at 55 Delisle (2006, 64 suites). Same street, same era, very different sizes.

For a buyer that is useful. You can compare three buildings of similar age on fees, reserve fund health and finish quality without changing neighbourhoods, and you can see which one the market rewards. The St. Clair is the largest of the three by a wide margin, which usually means more amenity space and more resale choice, and also more owners and more opinions at board level.

It also tells you the street is settled. These are the buildings that replaced the old low-rise stock on Delisle twenty years ago; what changes now is happening on Yonge itself.

The lobby, the courtyard and the rear wing

The building leans traditional rather than glassy. The lobby has a curved staircase and a chandelier and is staffed by a uniformed concierge, which is the sort of detail that dates some buildings and dignifies others. Here it suits the street and the buyers it attracts.

Behind the main building there is a courtyard garden and a rear extension known as Delisle Court, which has held retail and professional-service space. That mix is worth understanding before you buy: commercial units at the back can be convenient, and they also mean deliveries, visitors and a different kind of traffic around the property.

Inside, the descriptions I trust point to high ceilings, generous kitchens and good-sized balconies, many of them with views over the low-rise houses around Yonge and St. Clair. Exact ceiling heights are not published for the building, so measure the suite you are considering rather than relying on the brochure line.

Layouts: from small one-bedrooms to near-house sizes

The suite range is wide, roughly 486 to 2,737 sq ft, which covers one-, two- and three-bedroom plans. That spread is why the building attracts both first-time midtown buyers and downsizers coming out of houses in Deer Park and Moore Park.

The larger suites are the scarce ones. Midtown has plenty of one-bedrooms; a full-size three-bedroom with parking included and heat on the common meter is much harder to find. If you are a downsizer, that is the reason to be patient and wait for the right stack rather than compromise on a smaller plan.

At the small end, the suites compete with newer towers along Yonge. You will usually get more room per dollar here, but older kitchens and bathrooms may need updating, and that cost belongs in your offer.

One more practical point: with 226 suites, the building has more resale stock than its two Delisle neighbours combined, which hold 172 suites between them. Use that when a few suites are available at once. Compare two or three plans in different stacks before you commit, because orientation and floor make a bigger difference to light and noise here than the finishes do.

What is changing on the corner

The biggest change near the building is One Delisle, the Studio Gang-designed tower by Slate on Delisle at Yonge. BlogTO was still reporting on its construction through spring and summer 2026, so expect cranes, lane closures and noise at the Yonge end of the street for some time yet.

Once finished, a tower of that profile will raise the visibility of the whole corner and add a new tier of pricing next door. It will also change some views, so if a suite faces east or south, ask yourself what it will look at when One Delisle is complete.

Day to day, the appeal is simple: you are a short walk from the Yonge and St. Clair shops, groceries and the ravine parks to the north and east. Transit, schools and Walk Score are shown in the data panel on this page.

Pricing and fees at 10 Delisle

Condos.ca reports a building average of about $970 per square foot. The two neighbours on Delisle sit just below that: about $901 at 33 Delisle and about $934 at The Carlyle. So The St. Clair trades at a small premium on its own street, which fits its larger amenity package and staffed lobby.

One agent quoted in The Globe and Mail said a full-price offer there set a record for price per square foot in the building, and the same article put the fee on that suite as covering water, heating, concierge and the fitness and party rooms. I treat that as a sign that well-renovated suites can stretch the building average, not as the norm.

The fee structure matters more than the headline number. Heat, air conditioning, water and parking are all included, which removes two of the largest variable costs most condo owners carry. When you compare this building with a newer Yonge tower on a fee-per-square-foot basis, add parking and a heating and cooling bill back onto the newer building before you decide which is cheaper.

There were no active listings when I checked. If you want the recorded resale history rather than averages, ask me for the building sold report.

Amenities at The St. Clair

This is a lounge-and-library building rather than a pool-and-spa one. The package is modest but well used, and a staffed concierge plus visitor parking matter more at Yonge and St. Clair than a rooftop pool would.
