The Yonge Davenport area might be better known
for the MTV Masonic Temple or the massive Canadian Tire location.
It is however smack dab between two elite shopping areas; Yorkville
and Rosedale
and houses some serious shopping of its own.
Designer consignment, plus fashions and home decor all make this area
worth shopping and not just waiting inline for an appearance by an MTV
reality star.
You can access this neighbourhood easily from the Rosedale station to the north or the Bloor subway station to the south.
Some
of this area is in transition. Ridpaths is closing after 104 years in
business and the rumor is that it will be remade into a hotel.
But due to the foot traffic and promise of tourists I forsee the
empty storefronts filling fast.
