Those who prefer not to drive can use the Bloor-Danforth subway line to get around. Some condos in East York are situated within walking distance of Victoria Park, Main Street, Woodbine, Greenwood, Donlands, Pape, Chester, and Broadview Stations, while other residents may have to hop on a bus or streetcar in order to reach one of these stations.As for those planning to travel by car, the Don Valley Parkway certainly comes in handy. This major highway can be used to reach the 401 to the north or the Gardiner Expressway to the south in no time.

Prior to the amalgamation of the City of Toronto in 1998, East York was the only borough in town &mdash; and in the entire country. In fact, a vote was held to decide whether East York should amalgamate with Toronto back in the 1920s, with the vast majority of residents preferring to instead become the Township of East York. It wasn&rsquo;t until 1967 that the area would achieve its status as a borough, when the township joined forces with a neighbouring town called Leaside.East York is a massive area that&rsquo;s home to over 100,000 residents. <a href="https://strata.ca/toronto/condos-for-sale">Toronto condos for sale</a> in East York can be found north of Eglinton Avenue and as far south as Bloor Street East, with the area reaching from Bayview all the way east to Victoria Park Avenue.Gentrification is a touchy subject &mdash; especially in an ever-changing city like Toronto. Thankfully, though East York condos for sale are surrounded by a good mix of longstanding institutions, like Oak Park Deli and Donlands Diner, and hipster newbies such as Adamson Barbecue and Toronto Knife Throwing. Prospective buyers hoping to move their families into East York can also rest assured knowing there are plenty of kid-friendly attractions throughout the area.Rainy days, for example, may be spent exploring the Ontario Science Centre&rsquo;s latest exhibits, or hopping around at Sky Zone Trampoline Park. When the sun comes out, however, residents are encouraged to visit the Evergreen Brickworks. Located on the site of the former Don Valley Brick Works, Evergreen has transformed the disused industrial facilities into a cultural hub focused on the environment and sustainability. Saturdays are always a great time to visit, as the Brick Works hosts a weekly farmer&rsquo;s market, while the wintertime outdoor skating rink is also picture-perfect.
