Location & Neighbourhood
Condos in The Junction have the advantage of being in a cozy, transit-friendly neighbourhood that’s experienced a drastic change over the past decade and continues to evolve. A modern townhome community across the street from this site has spurred even more development in the immediate area, including Stock Yards Village, a major retail hub featuring big-box retailers, restaurants and a selection of lifestyle amenities.
The neighbourhood has seen several small condominium and mixed-use communities popping up in the past few years. One of these features a series of sleek towers anchored by a major grocery store, while another proposes a 14-storey condominium and space for an art school, theatre, galleries and a farmer’s market. A third has plans to add space for 2,500 new jobs and 1,000 residents, in the form of townhomes, condominiums, space for local businesses, a daycare and a revitalized heritage building that houses an art gallery.
