Why Consider a Condo by Lakeshore West
in Toronto?
As energy continues
to become a concern due to price and
supply, cities must be on the forefront
of developing alternatives and
practicing conservation.
While the rest of the world slept, the
City of Toronto, Ontario, was already
working on green technology. This city
is filled with green trees, parks, and a
lot of wide open spaces in spite of its
population of 2.5 million people. This
was no accident, but rather a bold
solution brought by government
revitalization efforts and
forward-thinking city planners.
To decrease
traffic congestion and pollution, they
wanted a plan that included
neighborhoods with homes close to mass
transportation. The goal was to have no
home further than five minutes from a
mass transit facility. In addition,
local shopping was also needed. Each
building was required to have green
roofs to promote energy efficiency. The
neighborhoods are also required to have
childcare facilities, recreational
facilities, and plenty of parks and open
spaces. The plan was to have cities
within cities. It worked.
The areas around the neighborhoods
bordering Niagara Street have all
benefited from these revitalization
efforts. In times past, the area was run
down and ramshackle with old railroad
lines and dilapidated buildings. It was
an area that invited the potential for
crime.
Niagara Street and the surrounding areas
have become viable and lively
residential neighborhoods, with many new
Toronto condos built, under
development, or proposed.. Affordable
condominiums are available for the right
price. For those who want a townhome,
the area of King West Village has a wide
variety of homes available for purchase.
