The National Post features a tasty little two-level, 2+1 bedroom penthousee condo for sale on Brunswick.
Like many condos of its ilk, it has three bathrooms. Can someone explain that to me? I've never understood why someone would need more bathrooms than bedrooms. Can it get more first-world than that?
But I digress... asking price? $1.635 million.
Cheers,
Vanessa

TO Life House of the Week
Is it just me, or a lot of the homes featured in Toronto Life's Home of the Week located in our area? Maybe it's just that I notice them more.
Anyway, this one is on Brunswick and it's a beauty!

Toronto Life House of the Week
Toronto Life's House of the Week is on our doorstep. on Brunswick, south of Bloor.
For fellow real estate junkies, it's a beaut!
I bought my house many moons ago and I still can't believe some of the sale prices for homes in the area.
If I was buying these days, there is no way I could afford to live in this area. I'm not the only one in that boat, either. Which, when you think of it, opens a whole new can of worms...
Happy viewing!

Is The Annex "Sketchy?"
Last Saturday the Globe and Mail ran an article titled Just How Sketchy Is The Annex?
It states that "cheap and dirty seems to be the order of the day now" for the Bloor Street strip between Bathurst and Spadina.
Even more interesting than the article are the comments, most of which lay the blame for any woes that Bloor Street is experiencing squarely on the doorstep of The Brunswick House.
I've lived in this area ten years and I definitely have noticed the decline in "shoppability" of the strip in the decade that I've been here.
When I moved in, you could buy fabulous meats and treats at Elizabeth's Deli, where opening the door released a flood of savoury aromas. The same was true for the fabulous cheese shop and Mel's Diner, all of which are gone now.
Every institution that closed down seemingly was replaced by a bar or a sushi place. And the comments about the Brunswick are illuminating as to how that establishment has changed and why.
Can one bad apple really spoil the whole bunch?

Fatal Shooting At Brunswick and Bloor
Police are looking for witnesses to a fatal shooting behind the Brunswick House early this morning.
It reminds me of this incident, which took place at the same intersection, though cater-corner. I never read any follow up news about that shooting.
Sad for the families, scary for the neighbourhood.
