Here's some ideas: Toronto - tourism by SSP Tony, on Flickr

Cool.. this place has a serious funky factor going. Floor plans would be nice...

I can't believe someone commented upon needing "design elements" for a Flea Market... lol! Go UT!

This looks promising. I also found a small shop in Kensington on Nassau next to the truck rental place. It's ok... just ok..

Thanks for the suggestions! I totally forgot about pawn shop row for some reason... I actually just picked up a nice vintage Yamaha receiver off Canuck Audio Mart... looks sooo nice. CR-620, google it if you want. :)

For those that like flea markets, this one whips Dr. Fleas arse any day and is probably the best one in the city.

Hey, does anybody have any suggestions on finding some older used vintage Hi-Fi equipment? I'm talking about those quintessential messy electronic stores with stereos & TV's from the 70's-00's that you usually see along a semi-rundown commercial block. There are a couple of stores in the...

Still don't know what you're getting at. GE has had operations in this building on Landsdowne and the immediate surrounding area (including the Foundry Lofts and the neighbouring large building(s)) for a hundred years now.

Dragon Condos I'm surprised that this hasn't been mentioned in this thread. from dragoncondos.com from http://www.buzzbuzzhome.com/the-dragon-condos If this goes through, it would be great for the neighbourhood. There really hasn't been any new development here since Chinatown Centre was...

...ok.. says the guy from Fort f'n Erie. Jeez...

Thanks! And sold too within a week. Seems the market for Lofts (at least hard lofts) is still pretty strong.

Hey everybody. Anybody who's interested, my loft is for sale. It's a true Hard Loft in a 1920's factory building close to Dundas & Bloor (Dundas West Station). It's a one bedroom, two level loft with a huge private rooftop terrace (with built-in seating, pergola, gas BBQ hook-up). The...

Not sure how I feel about this, the area already has a lot of density, and although the existing townhomes are pretty crappy and don't provide much, I don't think something 31 storeys is required here. I would prefer something 10ish floors, no retail. This area is a generally quiet...

I'm glad someone else bumped this 2 year old thread. I just gotta post these somewhere. There's still a bunch at George's Trains and this is for the benefit of anyone doubtful about the quality of the Bowser PCC's given how crappy the Bachman ones look. Behold, Bowser's PCC's in TTC livery...

It is pretty damned funny. I've always had low regard for this commie block. Their parking lot usually has one or two decrepit cars and there's always someone picking through their overloaded garbage bin / loading area.

ugg.. is it just me or are the attachments not showing up?

I think this is generally good infill for a primarily low density area. (brownfield redev. of old Glidden Paint Factory)

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Yellow Griffin http://www.yellowgriffinpub.com/ Pretty decent burgers, lots of different burger varieties, fresh made. Located in BWV.

Food?

Not a fan. Although I do agree that the existing heritage building will need to be gutted for it to be re-purposed, there is something unsettling about this high tower thrusting out of such a "humble" building. Really reminds me of the chestburster from Aliens. Or something fell out of the sky...
