The market, Georgian brick and the oldest street grid in the city. Quieter than its neighbours.
St. Lawrence is the oldest part of Toronto still standing as a neighbourhood, and it feels different from the rest of downtown for that reason — a tighter street grid, Georgian and Victorian brick, and a genuine market at its centre. The residential stock is a mix of co-operative and condominium apartments from the seventies and eighties, more recent infill, and a handful of converted warehouses. The neighbourhood was planned as mixed-income housing and has kept much of that character, which gives it a settled, year-round feel that the newer waterfront districts have not yet developed. For buyers who want downtown without the towers, this is usually the first place to look.
Co-op and condominium apartments, warehouse conversions, some newer mid-rise infill.
Downsizers, professionals, long-term residents; a genuinely mixed-age population.
The 504 King streetcar; Union and King stations both within walking distance.
Co-operative units are financed differently from condominiums. Confirm the ownership structure before you offer.
