    Toronto non-mall retail (Odds & Ends)

    Toronto Motion On Bay Street | ?m | 29s | Concert | IBI Group

    If you want to live at Bay/Dundas, you better be willing to pay for it. At that location and given the current market conditions, I would not expect these units to be "affordable" for many.
