The Vibe
Some rent, some own, some are subsidized, St Lawrence Market real estate is a triumph in urban planning that is a special place for Torontonians to gather, eat, laugh, shop, and sightsee.
The Story
The St Lawrence Market real estate is defined by inclusivity. Right in the heart of Old Toronto, this neighbourhood has become the perfect blend of old and new. Some of the buildings go back to the 1800s, like the opulent St. Lawrence Hall, while a mix of residential spaces were created in the 1960s and ‘70s. It’s this mix that has injected life into this former industrial land, and has turned it from abandoned into thriving space for people, young and old, to call home.
The Convenience
Nothing is more convenient than being steps from St. Lawrence Market. Not only do you have the best selection of meats, cheeses, bagels, and seafood in the city, but you also have farm fresh fruits and vegetables. While some might not immediately consider this place “practical” for everyday grocery shopping, shopping there might surprise you – it’s surprisingly budget-friendly!
The Residents
Cultural diversity defines this area, and there are plenty types of people who make up St Lawrence Market real estate. There are young families, new residents of Canada, older couples who have downsized, and first-time condo and home buyers all here. Living in St. Lawrence often feels like the embodiment of the “Canadian cultural melting pot.”
The Best Part
The St. Lawrence Farmers Market, just to the south of the historic building, is an exciting addition to this neighbourhood. With more and more options to buy directly from producers, residents of other neighbourhoods make the trek here simply to pick up groceries – can you imagine having it right at your doorstep all year long?
