The ST LAWRENCE MARKET neighborhood although still part of downtown Toronto, was the actual downtown centre and city hall location during the late 18th and entire 19th century.

The area is bounded by Yonge, Front, and Parliament Streets, and the Canadian National railway embankment. The Esplanade off Yonge St., lined with restaurants, sidewalk cafés and hotels runs through the middle of the area south of the Hummingbird Centre where the new L Tower condo will be built.

This lively neighborhood is steeped in Toronto’s history and is known for it’s historic ST LAWRENCE MARKET which dates back to a farmers market started in 1803 and today is rated as one of the world’s best markets in the tradition of small family owned businesses.

Interesting 19th century architecture for 80 historical landmarks like the Gooderham and Worts Flatiron Building link this area to the Distillery District the sole thriving pedestrian- traffic- only cultural centre of micro-brewery pub and art galleries and boutique retail with development in luxurious condominium residences and loft style living environments preserving a Dickensian aura.
