Neighbourhood guide  /  West End

Junction Triangle

Bounded on three sides by rail, a small neighbourhood changing quickly.

The Junction Triangle is defined literally by the three rail corridors that enclose it, which gives it hard edges and an unusually contained feel. It was industrial and working-class housing for most of its history, and the transformation has been rapid — the West Toronto Railpath running along one edge, new mid-rise development, and steady renovation of the small Victorian and Edwardian houses that make up most of the stock. Bloor GO and UP Express at the southern corner have improved access considerably. The rail is both the neighbourhood’s defining constraint and, through the Railpath, one of its better amenities.

Housing stock

Small Victorian and Edwardian houses, converted industrial buildings, newer mid-rise condominiums.

Who buys here

First-time buyers, young families, and buyers priced out of Roncesvalles and the Junction.

Transit

Bloor GO and UP Express at Dundas West; Dundas West and Lansdowne subway stations.

Worth checking

Rail noise and vibration vary sharply by street. Visit the specific address, not just the neighbourhood.
