About Riverside
Riverside — the historic east-end district around Queen and Broadview, just across the Don River from downtown — is one of Toronto's most characterful and well-connected neighbourhoods. Once the gateway between the city and the east, it has become a creative, design-conscious pocket of heritage commercial buildings, independent shops and restaurants along Queen East, anchored by the iconic Broadview Hotel and offering some of the best downtown-skyline views in the city from the Riverdale Park bluff. The adjacent Blake-Jones streets of Victorian homes give the area a tight-knit, residential feel.
The location is hard to beat for the east end. Queen, Dundas and Broadview streetcars connect straight to the core, Broadview station on Line 2 is a short ride north, and the future Ontario Line will add rapid transit nearby — a meaningful catalyst. Riverdale Park, the Don Valley trails and the Lower Don network give the neighbourhood exceptional green space and skyline views, while the Queen East and Gerrard strips provide a walkable, independent retail scene.
Condo stock in Riverside is a mix of brick-and-beam conversions, boutique mid-rises and newer infill that respects the heritage scale, drawing creative professionals, families and downsizers who want downtown proximity with east-end character. Pricing runs mid-to-upper for the east end — a premium for the location, the views and the Queen East lifestyle, but more accessible than the core across the river. It's a neighbourhood with genuine identity minutes from downtown.
