Yonge & Eglinton

Often dubbed "Yonge and Eligible" due to the amount of young single professionals who make the neighbourhood their first Toronto home, Yonge and Eglinton has a youthful-meets-establishment feeling as the core of affordable apartment building are adjacent to a number of affluent neighbourhoods. Once the final destination of the original Yonge Subway line when it opened in 1954, the skyline here has grown impressively since then with both condominium and office towers growing tall. With a major cluster of theatres, stores and even a television station, Yonge & Eglinton is both neighbourhood and regional hub at once.
