When compared directly against Waterfront Lighthouse East Tower at 20 Richardson St ($4.55 per square foot across 529 square feet), Quay House provides more interior square footage while maintaining a lower rate per square foot. Against Waterfront - Lighthouse Tower at 15 Lower Jarvis St ($4.77 per square foot across 610 square feet), Quay House trades at a more economical rate per square foot, allowing renters to secure newer construction with minimal sacrifice in living space. Renters trade slightly larger historical footprints found in older 2018-2019 completions like Aqualina ($4.43 per square foot across 647 square feet) and Monde ($4.09 per square foot across 647 square feet) for the contemporary layout efficiency, brand-new mechanical systems, and updated architectural finishes intrinsic to a 2025 delivery.

How do building age, amenities, and developer reputation impact rent spreads?

Quay House delivers an extensive lifestyle and wellness package designed for contemporary urban renters, rivaling or exceeding the communal offerings of nearby multi-phase waterfront developments. The building features 12 signature amenities, highlighted by a fully equipped Gym & Fitness Centre, a dedicated Yoga Studio, a tranquil Meditation Room, an expansive Rooftop Terrace, and an on-site Dog Run. By comparison, Waterfront Lighthouse East Tower at 20 Richardson St includes sports-focused additions like a basketball court and a tennis and pickleball court, but lacks dedicated meditation spaces. Waterfront - Lighthouse Tower at 15 Lower Jarvis St and Aqualina at Bayside Toronto both incorporate outdoor pools and hot tubs, whereas Quay House emphasizes wellness through its specialized yoga and meditation rooms combined with outdoor green space. Monde at 12 - 16 Bonnycastle St features unique resident perks like a shuttle service and piano lounge, but offers less specialized pet infrastructure than Quay House's dedicated dog run. This amenity profile particularly serves active professionals, remote workers utilizing the business centre, and pet owners seeking robust on-site conveniences.

Data Methodology & Analytical Standards

How FastScreen aggregates public listing records, tracks active inventory, and calculates rental market metrics for Quay House.

Snapshot Dates & Benchmark Cadence

  • Standardized Snapshot: Market metrics reflect a standardized monthly snapshot locked as of August 31, 2026.
  • Benchmark Comparison Cadence: Month-over-month comparisons evaluate changes across standardized month-end reporting windows (August 2026 vs July 2026), ensuring consistent baseline periods and eliminating intra-month reporting volatility.
  • Point-in-Time Daily History: Daily charts capture point-in-time active listings available on any given calendar day.

Public Data Aggregation & Thresholds

  • Public Data Aggregation: FastScreen aggregates residential rental listing and completed lease transaction records from publicly available sources.
  • Threshold Filtering: All listings are subject to a minimum monthly rental threshold of $1,000 to filter out standalone storage lockers, private parking spaces, and misclassified commercial entries from condominium statistics.

Calculation Formulations

  • Average Asking Rent: Weighted average of active asking prices across available suites in the reporting period.
  • Price Per Square Foot ($/SF): Calculated by dividing rent by square footage only for listings that provide unit dimensions (suites without stated square footage are excluded from $/SF calculations).
  • Days on Market (DOM): Measures elapsed calendar days between the date a suite is first listed and either the benchmark snapshot date (for active listings) or the finalized date leased.
  • Parking & Den Differentials: Average asking rent differences between suites with vs. without parking, and suites with vs. without a den.

Data Limitations & Scope

  • Exclusively Public Records: Statistics are derived exclusively from publicly available rental listings and completed lease records. Private direct-to-landlord arrangements, unadvertised tenant renewals, and off-market rental agreements are not captured.
  • Agreed Contract Amounts: Reported lease amounts reflect agreed contract rents and do not account for private move-in allowances or individual unit renovations that may influence pricing spreads.
