Real Estate Guide › East
Woodbine Corridor
It’s unlikely that realtors—or residents—will stop referring to sections of this neighbourhood as Upper Beach (the stretch from Kingston Road to the CNR rail line above Gerrard Street) and Danforth Village (the section from the rail line north to Milverton Boulevard). But to the city, it’s all Woodbine Corridor now. The residential streets feature the area’s typical brick detached and semi-detached homes, many built before 1946. Head west and you’ll find Little India (along Gerrard, near Coxwell), with its colourful stores and fragrant restaurants. This district’s strip of the Danforth isn’t as lively or appealing as its western stretch, but there’s good access to downtown via subway and streetcar, and the neighbourhood sports a number of parks, as well as proximity to the boardwalk and street life of the Beach to the south.
