Those who rely on public transit have streetcars on College, buses on Bay, and College Station is just around the corner for the Yonge-University subway line.The Bay Street Corridor is not known as a driver-friendly area, but residents of 25 Grenville Street have only a short trip to major highways &mdash; head north on Yonge and then east on Bloor for the Don Valley Parkway, and head south on Bay for the Gardiner Expressway.

Been living here 7 years, first 3 were great but it has definitely dipped in quality since then with elevator upkeep

The building is a bit older but it’s held up well. My unit has a great layout and the ceilings are higher than most newer condos I’ve seen. Location is a major plus! Close to everything but still feels a bit tucked away. Elevators can be slow at times but nothing dealbreaking.
