    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    They used to live in one of the older high-rise condos in Harbourfront, so they already know what condo living is like, but I think trading places for a week will allow them to get to know the Y/E neighbourhood better and see if they like it. They're house is a pain to get to by public...

    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    88 Broadway: great choice! I looked at floor plans there a couple of years ago but didn't buy because we ended up deciding to stay in Boston for a bit longer. How do you like it? I should really ask them to take a look there. What do you think of the Republic (besides that it's pricey) and the...

    And on top of that consider that many 65-75 year old retirees with no significant health limitations don't want to live in a "seniors building" but still want wide hallways, shower enclosures, etc so they dont have to move in case their mobility does become limited. For a city with this many...

    My brother used to rent at the Domus on McAlpine, and I thought the McMurrich building was part of the same development (even though the buildings look very different). I will definitely ask them to take a look.

    Another big plus for Yonge and Eglinton is that both my sister and brother live in the area. I'm in Boston, but when I move back I'm hoping to move somewhere around Yonge and Eg too. Does anyone know anything about 7 Broadway? The location's fantastic. Also, what's the demographic of Minto...

    They never go to College Park, but I'm going to encourage them to at least check it out and see how they like the area.

    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    I hadn't thought of that (I was thinking more about what kind of view they would have) but you're absolutely right.

    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    I think the Manulife is a fantastic idea! What's the demographic in the building? Are there many students? Is it well-maintained? What are the views in the building like? And my last question--how would you compare it to 18 Yorkville (other than the latter is probably more expensive)?

    What do you think about 18 Yorkville?

    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    I hadn't considered the apartments at Manulife, but I think they'd love that location. I heard years ago from a friend that there is a long waiting list to get an apartment there. Is that true? Also, what condition are the apts in? Is there ensuite laundry or is it common laundry (common laundry...

    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    The floor plans look great! We actually grew up in the High Park area. I think my parents prefer to stay fairly central (close to the Yonge-University line) and in an area where there is more within walking distance. They used to live at 55 Harbour Square at Bay and Queen's Quay--I don't think...

    Where should my 65+ y.o. parents downsize to?

    My parents are in their late 60's. They currently live in a 1300 sq foot two story house on the edge of Rosedale. They're planning to move in about 1 or so years. Although they're health is good now, they want to be in a place that has covered parking, no stairs, is bright, and is walking...
