When we started out with BloorCondos.com, our goal was to cover the changing look of the Bloor-Yorkville neighbourhood. With developments like Crystal Blu and Uptown racing to the top of the skyline, there’s always new content to cover! For this post we took to the streets and looked waaay up to capture the two elegant condo developments as they near completion!

With the hustle and bustle of downtown living, it’s hard to find the time to take in the neighbourhood. On Thursday June 3rd, 2010 the monthly art walk will be making it’s rounds through the various Yorkville galleries! It’s a great opportunity to find that special piece for your Yorkville condo! The walk will take guests to seven galleries including:
1. Hollander York Gallery
2. Ingram Gallery
3. Kinsman Robinson Galleries
4. Lane Gallery
5. Leonardo Galleries
6. Liss Gallery
7. Odon Wagner Gallery
According to the Yorkville Art Walk website: The informal, free tour begins by gathering at the Rotunda (lower level) in the Hazelton Lanes Mall, opposite Browns’ Shoe Store. The attendees split into two or three smaller groups which visit selected area galleries during the evening. Each small group is led by a tour guide who is familiar with art appreciation and the local art scene. Some of the galleries may have featured artists present for the tour. A wide range of Contemporary or Historical Canadian and International works of art are available for viewing. At the end of the evening attendees may join the group for coffee at a local area café.
The walk is organized by Artsgroup. Co-ordinator: Marg King If you require further details please call Marg
at (647) 588-1144 or send an email to Paul Ferri at Info@YorkvilleNews.ca

Hungry but don’t feel like cooking? Forgot to pack a lunch? Or maybe you missed your daily fix of Starbucks. Whatever the case, the new Market by Longo’s could probably solve all those problems!
BloorCondos visited the new store to see what fresh finds The Market offered. The store isn’t large by traditional standards, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The compact sized store made it easy to navigate with tons of friendly staff nearby to help. The salad bar seemed to be the most popular attraction, where many people were mixing and matching salad combos. Past the salad bar was a sushi station with sets made right in front of you! Some delicious entrées can be had along the west wall with everything from a bakery to a pizza parlour. There’s a fresh fish counter at the back with prepared meats seasoned and ready to go… and for those who like their coffee on the run; the built-in Starbucks is there to serve you!
The Market is a great addition to Bloor and Yonge, giving residents and employees of the neighbourhood a great selection of prepared foods at a convenient location. The Market is located next to the Toronto Marriot – Bloor Yorkville at Bloor and Park Rd (100 Bloor Street East Toronto ON M4W 1A7) and open from Monday – Friday 7am-9pm Saturday & Sunday 7am-8pm!

In our second look at Pears on the Avenue, we’re shifting our attention to the many luxurious amenities the condos will have!
Residents can choose between: the Multi-purpose party room with catering kitchen and wet bar, indoor pool with whirlpool and private cabanas, a gym with separate cardio and weight areas, a yoga studio, men’s and woman’s change rooms with showers and saunas, a Hollywood style screening room, a private board room, a hotel-styled guest suite and a landscaped terrace with open fire pit, seating and sundeck!
Many of the amenites will be spread over the ground floor and upper mezzanine. The party room will have a “club house” feel with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the landscaped terrace! An off white limestone will clad the walls of the pool room, with porcelain tiled floors below. Complementing the pool is a whirlpool set against a wall of backlit onyx. It’s the perfect retreat in the city on those cold winter days!
Send us an email if you’re interested in making Pears on the Avenue your home.

Last Thursday the Gumball 3000 Rally stopped in Yorkville for the night! The weather held up just long enough for Torontonians to take in the exotic sights of tricked out Lambo’s, Ferrari’s and even a few Bentley’s. For those that missed it, Toronto photographer Dan G. snapped some high calibre cinematic photos of the cars as the sun was setting. Check them out below as well as some other sights BloorCondos.com saw at Gumball 3000!
