thanks for the clarification... no, seriously - I'm curious, why is that? a new building? better location? cheap rent? better amenities?
I moved into 150 Dan Leckie last March and I'm thoroughly enjoying my apartment. Most of the people I've encountered here are super nice, and for the first time since moving to Toronto I feel completely comfortable starting conversation or asking for help from people I meet in the elevator. The apartments were obviously made as cheaply as possible, but since I can't say any of the other apartments I've had were much better I can't complain. The neighbourhood is also pretty good. I have a south/east facing apartment so I get to watch all the dogs play in the dog park which is nice. Plus, I haven't seen any bugs. No roaches, no ants, no bed bugs, not
one which, again, is a first since moving to Toronto. In the summer there's a farmer's market in the park which is also really nice.
Kinda disappointed to hear that it's a Timmies going in downstairs. I guess I'll keep walking over to Thor for my coffee (Every three weeks when I decide I can afford a coffee I don't make anyway). The Sobey's is a little out of my pay grade but I'm still within walking distance of a few other smaller places that have cheaper groceries. I'll be happy when the Spadina street car comes all the way down here, as walking all the way to Bathurst or King is a bit of a pain (Or I can catch the bus, just to catch the King or Spadina street car later on. I don't fancy waiting for two TTC vehicles instead of just one).
The Apartment may be a little small, but for a two bedroom in this location, for under 1500$/month I'm not complaining.
The only thing I might have an issue with, is that while the building itself seems to be run alright, dealing with the TCHC was a bit of a headache.
I hope that was helpful.
