Cityplace

Cityplace is a residential condominium district built on what was formerly railway land by developers Concord Adex. Cityplace is centrally located, meaning that there is easy access to both Union Station and the Gardiner Expressway. Though there is little street life in the area itself, Cityplace is a short distance to the neighbourhoods of the Harbourfront and the Toronto Entertainment District. Close proximity to these neighbourhoods means that the area is near recreation, nightlife, restaurants, theatres and sports venues as well as shopping on Queen St W.
