401 Richmond

Built For Art

Toronto's Downtown Arts Hub

401 Richmond is a heritage-designated industrial building turned arts and culture hub. The building was originally constructed in several phases between 1899 and 1923 for the Macdonald Manufacturing Company. The building operated as a tin factory best known for its lithographic work. That artistic lineage is still seen today with a community of nearly 150 artists, cultural producers, nonprofits and microenterprises.
