Woodbine Corridor Real Estate

A narrow rectangle running from Coxwell Ave in the west, to Woodbine Ave in the east, from Queen St and Kingston Rd in the south to the Danforth Ave in the north, the Woodbine Corridor sits directly northeast of the beaches and is one of the neighbourhoods that forms the Upper Beaches. The area is also situated just east of Little India and has a handful of parks and green spaces to its advantage. The neighbourhood is connected via the TTC 502 and 503 and 506 streetcar routes as well as the Bloor-Danforth subway line at the north end.

Farmers’ Market

From June to October the East Lynn Farmers’ Market pops up every Thursday evening, selling everything from homemade pies to preserves and fresh produce. This is a certified local farmers market that offers up as much entertainment as it does flavour, including face painting, kids crafts, live concerts and movie nights, put on by the Danforth East Community Association that holds events year round.
