50 Eglinton Ave W Mississauga
Esprit Condominium is a luxury highrise condo located at 50 Eglinton Avenue West in Mississauga, Ontario.
Contents
Built and completed in 1992. the Esprit condo was originally launched as an exclusive boutique building, and it has maintained that reputation throughout the past thirty years.
Esprit fronts onto Eglinton Ave W, just a few blocks north of the vast shopping attractions of Square One. It consists of a single 22 storey tower with a mix of one and two bedroom apartments.
Municipal address for Esprit condominium is 50 Eglinton Avenue West, Mississauga, Ontario L5R 3P5.
The Esprit building is part of the initial wave of luxury condos in downtown Mississauga that were built in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s.
Although it is located in the Hurontario district, which is an area slightly to the north of Mississauga City Centre (MCC), it is surrounded by plenty of retail and commercial options, and is just minutes away from all that MCC has to offer.
Pros and Cons
First, the good news. 50 Eglinton Ave W is old school. Condo apartments here are very large when compared to today’s more recent projects. For example, most 2 bedroom units are between 1000 and 1200 square feet, which is quite a premium over today’s typical units. That’s a big plus.
On the flip side, 50 Eglinton Ave W. was built during the brief time in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s when the City of Mississauga outlawed balconies.
There are panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the building, but there are no balconies here.
Also, this condo does not allow dogs. Cats and other small pets like fish are OK, but dogs are restricted. Something to consider if you have a canine pal in your life.
Before we take a deep dive into the building itself, let’s take a look at the area.
Mississauga Attractions
Shopping
The Esprit condo is adjacent to a shopping plaza that includes restaurants, coffee shops, offices, and stores.
In addition, there is a major mall that is directly across Hurontario St., which includes a large supermarket named Oceans Fresh Food Market, multiple coffee shops and restaurants, a Toys ‘R’ Us, and many other retail establishments.
Finally, Square One Shopping Centre, Ontario’s largest mall, is just a 5 minute drive away. The two north entrances to the mall (Walmart and Simons) are the closest.
Square One has more than 360 stores, restaurants, bars, and services.
The Esprit tower is located at the corner of Hurontario St. and Eglinton Ave. W.
The nearest cinemas are the Cineplex Cinemas at Rathburn Road and Living Arts Drive.
In addition to all the shopping possibilities, once you cross over to the City Centre area, there are a lot of attractions here at the heart of the Mississauga City Centre for anyone to enjoy.
- Celebration Square Mississauga with its vibrant slate of community events, fountains, and skating rink in winter
- Living Arts Centre Mississauga
- Mississauga Art Gallery
- Mississauga City Hall
- Hazel McCallion Central Library

Transit
The central Mississauga MiWay Transit and GO bus terminal is located at the north side of the Square One mall. This is the central transit hub for the city of Mississauga.
Here you will find direct MiWay bus service to points across the city, as well as direct service to the Kipling subway station in Etobicoke. Furthermore,
GO Transit bus service extends from here to downtown Toronto, and to many other points including Toronto Pearson International Airport, Hamilton, and even Scarborough.
The transit terminal will soon add a major new enhancement when the Hurontario LRT (Hazel McCallion LRT) adds a stop there in late 2025 or early 2026. This will provide direct light rail service from Port Credit north to the centre of Brampton.
The LRT is replacing a bus route that currently runs north-south along Hurontario St., and it will have a stop right by the front door of 50 Eglinton Ave W.
In addition, the LRT will continue on to the Cooksville GO station, a short distance beyond the transit terminal, which will provide additional connectivity to downtown Toronto.
Commuters living at the Esprit condo also have easy access to both Ontario Highway 403, and Highway 401. Both highways are close by, and are easily accessible via Hurontario St.
Schools
There are several elementary schools serving the area, including Huntington Ridge Elementary School (PK-5) Fairwind Senior Public School (6-8), and St. Matthew Catholic Elementary School (PK-8).
In addition, there are also public and catholic high schools nearby: Rick Hansen Secondary School and St. Francis Xavier Catholic Secondary School.
Nearby Grocery Stores
Foodies rejoice! There is an abundance of supermarkets in the area.
As mentioned above, there is a major grocery store named Oceans Fresh Food Market, which is right across Hurontario St. Oceans is a vast Chinese-themed supermarket that also has a full selection of western goods. It’s extremely popular with locals and visitors alike.
A few minutes north on Hurontario St. you will find Highland Farms, which is another vast and popular supermarket that has discount prices.
There is also a Whole Foods Market located on the north side of the Square One mall.
Also close by are Food Basics and Metro supermarkets, plus the full grocery located in Walmart at Square One.
Parks and Recreation
Despite being just minutes away from the bustling city centre of Mississauga, residents and their guests at Esprit condos are lucky to have close access to one of the best parks in Mississauga. Kariya Park, which was originally a gift to the city of Mississauga from the city of Kariya, Japan.
This excellent city park, with its serene Japanese gardens, is often the setting for wedding pictures for newlywed couples.
The park has winding trails, ponds, wooden bridges, sculptures, a pagoda-style pavilion, and much more.
There are several neighbourhood parks nearby, including Kingsbridge Common Park, which is a 5 minute walk away, Hawthorne Valley Park, and Heritage Hills Park, which are each about an 11 minute walk from the condo. All three have soccer fields and baseball diamonds.
There are over 70 highrise condos in the city centre, as well as over 20 in the Hurontario area. Consequently, all the parks are extremely popular, and they are usually very busy during the warmer months.
