Toronto bar Pegasus on Church recently marked 30 years in the Church-Wellesley Village, evolving from its humble beginnings as a billiards lounge in 1995 into a community hub today that emphasizes unique programming and provides a welcoming space for the LGBTQ community. Pegasus originally got its start as Pegasus Billiard Lounge just north of its current location.

It's rare for a listing to outright say that a property might not be "right" for a buyer.Generally, sales strategies are employed to maximize the potential buyer pool, not minimize it. But 55 Chisholm St. is a very unconventional home, so when Engelbrecht Associates say "this is not a property for everyone," it kind of makes sense. The main floor. Located in West Harbour in Oakville, this three-bedroom, four-bathroom house is a bold mix of industrial design and the cozy charm of a Muskoka cottage. The dining room. You have a soapstone fireplace mixed with polished concrete floors juxtaposed with a hyper-modern bright blue Scavolini kitchen.
