And it’s only a ten-minute drive to the renowned restaurants and bazaars of Little India on Gerrard Street as well as the eclectic shops and eateries along Danforth Avenue.

As a home to East End condos, the neighbourhood has excellent transit connections with easy access to the Bloor subway line and the Main Street GO station for train travel to Union Station and east to Oshawa. It’s definitely a neighbourhood to watch for future developments.
