James Cooper Mansion

James Cooper Mansion Condos at 28 Linden Street is one of Tridel’s signature downtown developments. The property blends a fully restored 19th-century mansion with a 33-storey glass tower, offering both heritage character and modern convenience.

The entrance, located on tree-lined Linden Street, leads through lush gardens and elegant sculptures. From here, residents can walk to Bloor Street, the Sherbourne subway station, and even reach the Don Valley Parkway in minutes. The area borders Rosedale to the north and Cabbagetown to the southeast—two neighbourhoods known for their greenery and charm. Nearby, Riverdale Farm provides a quiet, natural escape from the downtown rush.

A Landmark of Heritage and Innovation

Industrialist James Cooper built the mansion in 1881. Over the years, it housed the Keeley Institute for Nervous Diseases and later the Knights of Columbus. In 2008, Tridel made history by relocating the entire mansion 25 feet to make space for the new tower. The move cost around $1 million, making it the heaviest residential relocation in Canadian history.

Today, the restored mansion anchors the property and contains all of the building’s shared amenities. The sleek tower beside it rises 33 storeys and holds more than 270 modern condos. Together, the two structures form a perfect mix of historic beauty and urban sophistication.

Elegant and Bright Suites

The 274 suites in the tower range from 500 to 2,500 square feet. Homebuyers can choose between one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and two-bedroom plus den layouts.

Each home feels open and bright, featuring 9-foot ceilings, open-concept living areas, and granite countertops. Many units also have large kitchen breakfast bars and private balconies that overlook the city. Smaller suites attract first-time buyers, while larger homes appeal to families and downsizers. Every residence combines modern finishes with timeless comfort.

Amenities Inside the Historic Mansion

Residents enjoy an excellent list of amenities inside the restored mansion. These include a fitness centre, yoga and steam rooms, party room, games room, and cinema. The building also offers a meeting room, guest suites, and visitor parking.

Thanks to the mansion’s architectural detail and Tridel’s thoughtful design, these shared spaces feel both elegant and inviting.

Connected Downtown Living

The Yonge and Bloor neighbourhood places everything within reach. Boutique shopping, fine dining, and cultural attractions are minutes away. In addition, both the Bloor-Danforth and Yonge-University subway lines are close, making travel across the city fast and easy.

Living at James Cooper Mansion Condos means enjoying the best of Toronto—heritage, style, and convenience—all in one extraordinary address.
