Why We Love It Here

There’s a busy dining scene, with a mix of trendy international restaurants and old-school diners, while King Street West’s dance clubs draw late-night crowds. You can spend the day popping into endless indie boutiques and galleries along Queen Street, or discovering many of the city’s favourite restaurants and bars along King Street.

The Local Claim To Fame

A long lane known as Graffiti Alley is lined with colourful, frequently changing street art.

What To Do & See

STACKT Market at the corner of Front and Bathurst streets is an architecturally-unique outdoor market built with repurposed shipping containers functioning as an event and gathering space with a variety of retailers from vintage stores to ice cream parlours. It’s also the setting for many pop-ups and cultural events, from comedy shows to poetry recitals.

A block away you’ll find The Well, another indoor-outdoor mixed-use destination for shopping, dining, and gathering. In the centre of the neighbourhood is Waterworks Food Hall, and across the street is the trendy Ace Hotel, home to Alder restaurant, a local favourite for fine dining with a welcoming flair.
