Welcome to HOME @ William Street
The Greater Toronto Area has many quaint villages spanning from Etobicoke to Scarborough. As prices rise in the downtown core, many are looking to the cities suburbs to find a strong local community, green spaces, and new developments.
Weston is a historic town dating back to the 1790s, located in the city’s northwest corner, just south of Highway 401. It boasts its own Santa Clause Parade, one of Toronto’s oldest bookstores, Squibb’s, and has three major parks, one of which has an outdoor pool. It is also becoming an arts hub, with the recent arrival of the highly anticipated Weston Common.
These are only a few of the reasons why 45 William Street is the perfect location for your new home. Weston is one of the first business districts in Toronto, and the surrounding area reflects the cultural diversity of the community. Residents at 45 William Street will receive their own fully furnished bedroom, some with adjoining bathrooms, and have access to a fully functional home many times larger than what is traditionally available for a single person in Toronto.
The kitchen is equipped with state of the art appliances, the utilities are included in the rent, there is a big backyard complete with a barbecue, and all maintenance and high-level sanitization are taken care of. All you have to do is move in and get ready to meet your new housemates.
Down the street, you have the newest location of Black Cat Espresso Bar, one of Toronto’s hippest coffee shops with every oat-milk and specialty coffee you can dream of. The arrival of the Weston Common aims to “build on the community’s existing creativity and cultural richness, offering a vibrant central gathering place for people to come together to create, learn, and celebrate.”
Comprised of both indoor and outdoor spaces, Artscape Weston Common provides a hub for artists, new rental homes in the area, and is a catalyst for urban and community development outside of Toronto’s downtown core. As LoriAnn Girvan, Artscape’s chief operating officer said, “We think Weston is a model, a catalyst and inspiration for how we should be building in our city. We’re so excited about this project, I think Weston is a bell-ringer for really good urban development.”
We share in this excitement and it is evident at 45 William Street. Creativity, rich culture, histories, and traditions are all alive and well in Weston, and this co-living space creates the perfect oasis for those looking to engage with a culture of community while taking all of the hard work of finding a new home out of the equation.
In addition to several bike trails, walking paths, and close proximity to the 401, the Weston area is also graced by the UP Express. The UP Express was launched in 2015 as a way to connect downtown residents from Union Station, Bloor Street, and Weston to Toronto Pearson International Airport in 15 minutes. The train is incredibly modern, with free Wi-Fi, up-to-the-minute flight information, charging stations for all devices, and plenty of storage space for commuters. North America’s first dedicated air-rail link, offering a 25-minute journey from end to end, departing in snow or shine with no traffic gridlock, makes this an incredible advantage for those who live in the Weston neighbourhood.
We are seeing a huge infrastructure investment happening in Weston, and there is more to come. On top of the UP Express taking commuters from Weston to Union Station in 15 minutes for a mere $5.65 (try getting anywhere in 15 minutes on the 501 Queen Street streetcar!), there is also plans for a new station benefiting GO travelers, as well as a new LRT station.
Clearly, Weston is a neighbourhood on the rise while still maintaining its historical roots, and 45 William Street is your chance to get in on the ground floor. Whether you are searching for a modern way to live such as coliving, or are only just now exploring this option, we should talk! Give us a call today to book a viewing, and get excited about the future that is waiting for you at 45 William Street.
