Neighbourhood guide  /  Midtown

Deer Park

Apartment buildings on the main streets, Victorian and Edwardian houses behind them.

Deer Park sits around Yonge and St Clair and is one of the older midtown neighbourhoods, developed as the city expanded north in the late nineteenth century. The stock is genuinely mixed: postwar and more recent apartment buildings along St Clair and Yonge, and behind them streets of Victorian and Edwardian houses, many of them semi-detached and handsomely restored. The ravine system is close, the subway is at the door, and there is enough retail on both main streets to make a car optional. It appeals particularly to buyers who want a house downtown-adjacent but find Rosedale prices out of reach.

Housing stock

Apartment and condominium buildings on the main streets; Victorian and Edwardian houses on the side streets.

Who buys here

Professionals, downsizers, and families buying their first midtown house.

Transit

St Clair station on the Yonge line; the St Clair streetcar running west.

Worth checking

Older apartment buildings vary widely in condition. Compare reserve funds and recent capital work.
