26 h. ago Totally unliveable Toronto house is somehow still selling $800,000

The Toronto real estate market is, by all metrics, kinda terrible right now. And yet, it somehow still has the audacity to ask almost $800,000 for an unliveable house.120 Castlefield Ave. is literally falling apart — but because it's in Toronto’s coveted Allenby neighbourhood, it's still considered valuable.At one point, this house was probably fine. It's a classic three-bedroom, one-bathroom semi-detached with original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and a fireplace. But those days are long gone.A bedroom. After what looks like years (decades?) of neglect, the inside of the home resembles a horror movie set more than a real estate listing.The kitchen. The walls are crumbling, the paint is peeling, the ceiling is literally falling in, and the kitchen looks ... terrifying. A bedroom. Despite this, the house is listed at $799,900 — a relative "bargain" in a neighbourhood where semi-detached homes usually sell for $1...

61 h. ago Buzzy Toronto sandwich spot finally reopening after closing for a year

A Toronto sandwich shop unlike any other in the city is finally about to open after being shut down for a year.While sandwich shops in Toronto are in no short supply, we're firm believers in the "the more, the merrier" approach, particularly when it comes to the ones that put a unique spin on one of the most widely available food formats around.It's for that exact reason that the sudden and quiet closure of Corktown staple FAMO Sandwiches in the spring of 2024 was particularly heartbreaking.Open in the neighbourhood for eight years, the sandwich shop made its name crafting juicy, dense sandwiches using alternative cuts of meat, which are, tragically, often discarded (or, if schoolyard urban legends are to be believed, turned into street meat).Beef tongue, oxtail, burgers and breaded fish tacos graced the menu of the celebrated sandwich shop, all crafted with the bits and pieces that often go overlooked despite being no less delicious, and FAMO s...

3 d. ago Toronto neighbourhood throwing a surprise street festival this weekend

Toronto's Baldwin Village is about to come alive this Saturday, July 5, as local merchants band together for an impromptu street party that promises to bring big energy to one of the city's most underrated neighbourhoods.The one-day celebration will feature a dynamic mix of music, food, art, and dance, plus at least a couple of artisan markets; there's the potential for a surprise fashion show, too! Each business along Baldwin is curating its own lineup of talent, and so far, the street is shaping up to host a mix of live bands, DJs, visual artists, and performers.It's a grassroots event in every sense. There's no formal street closure (yet), no major sponsors, or flashy branding; it’s just a collective effort by independent business owners who want to breathe new life into this little tucked-away village. Despite being home to some of the most charming patios and low-key restaurants in the city, it still flies under the radar for many Torontonians. But thi...
