Known as "The Nut" by its student residents, it was converted from the Colony Hotel in 2004 and turned into a student residence to accommodate the incoming double cohort in 2003 and 2004. It is located in downtown Toronto, just north of Toronto City Hall and near Nathan Philips Square. It has nearly 1000 residents from the University of Toronto, OCAD, George Brown College and Ryerson University. Its postal code is M5G 1R1; it is located on 89 Chestnut street. It has a conference centre and a revolving room on the 28th floor. It is the most expensive residence of all University of Toronto residences.^[1]

There is a Chestnut Residence Council. The Council is the student governing body for social, athletic and community affairs of the Residence. It organizes activities such as: the annual Chestnut semi-formal, coffee houses and open mic nights, ski and snowboarding trips, and intramural sports tournaments.
