The Junction, West Toronto
The Junction is a tucked away pocket in the west-end of Toronto filled with history going back to the 1800’s. This area covers from Runnymede Road to the C.N. Railway corridor to the east, and north of Annette to south of St. Clair Road.
The Junction neighbourhood, a former industrial area, is clearly in the upswing with a small-village feel that is both a benefit to the current community and a draw to home buyers and new artsy shops that are opening. It’s close to High Park and The Bloor West Village with its own unique character. The Junction also offers easy access to transit with buses and the Bloor-Danforth subway line or a quick route can take you to the Q.E.W. & Lakeshore Blvd. There are great schools offered within the neighbourhood for young families. Along with being so conveniently close to High Park it boasts another unique green space called the West Toronto Railpath. It opened in 2009, as a multi-use asphalt trail for pedestrians and cycles that runs from the Junction towards Dundas and Lansdowne. It’s a wonderful example of urban rails to trails projects that transforms former rail lines and the future plans include expanding the trail to Liberty Village.
