Collingwood
About Area
You can get great bang for your buck in this bustling Easterly community. Offering a large selection of properties from condo’s to large family homes, buyer’s will find this area to be more affordable than others yet still conveniently located near transit and recreation. Speckling Kingsway & Joyce Street, the main thoroughfares – you’ll find fresh veggie markets and delicious, authentic Asian cuisine to warm your spirits on those rainy westcoast afternoons. While the area used to be pretty culturally homogeneous, it is now very much a mixed community servicing people from every walk of life. Young professionals like the quick transit downtown while families love the parks and schools. Collingwood Neighborhood House serves as a hub for locals, offering extensive family care programs including daycare, learning assistance, senior’s outreach and family fitness. The newly adopted Joyce Skytrain Community Plan calls for higher density along Boundary & Kingsway and near Joyce Station. The plan intends to create more small and affordable highrise condos and more ground oriented housing to suit families. This should revitalize the area over time with more amenities coming to suit the growth. Just a couple stops to Metrotown or Commercial Drive, this area blends affordability with great convenience. Never been? Skytrain over to Joyce, grab a Bubble Tea, sit in Gaston Park and watch this vibrant neighborhood go by.
