Harbourfront
Harbourfront is Toronto's downtown waterfront stretch, where condo towers meet the lake along Queens Quay, the cultural programming at Harbourfront Centre, and the ferry docks that carry people across to the Toronto Islands. It is a recognized pocket within the City's official Harbourfront-CityPlace neighbourhood rather than a neighbourhood of its own. Living here means lakeside walks and a genuine downtown address, with a builder's question never far behind: what can you build, renovate, or own on the water's edge.
