Living in Liberty Village | Ramsay Real Estate Group

Liberty Village exudes an incredibly rich history. In the 1850s, newly-built railway lines cut it off from residential development, and the area quickly grew into an industrial one. With the industry flourishing rapidly, many companies worked out of this location. In the 1970s and ’80s, industry in the area began to decline due to a shift from rail to road shipping. This made room for residential growth.

Liberty Village is now a hot-spot for young professionals and artists. It’s highly sought out by people who want to go further west, while still remaining close enough to the core. Many of the old factories have been repurposed as lofts, restaurants, or gyms. If you are looking for Toronto lofts with soaring ceilings and huge windows, or new condo towers to add just enough contrast, this is a great area. There is something for everyone here, a great example of Toronto real estate!

Liberty Village is bounded by King Street West to the north, Dufferin Street to the west, The Gardiner Expressway to the south, and Strachan Avenue to the east. Location is one of its greatest perks. Liberty Village is walking distance to the lakeshore, a 15 minute streetcar ride to the financial core, and a stroll away from the energy of King Street West.
