Italian villages celebrate life in the town square, or as they call it, the piazza. Toronto’s Little Italy neighbourhood celebrates life on its bustling sidewalks and busy patios, giving the feel of a European piazza right in the middle of the city…not to mention it has some of the best people-watching in the city!

Ah…Italy. The name conjures thoughts of sultry summer days spent lunching at authentic pizzerias, indulging in freshly-brewed cappuccino and listening to the near constant cacophony of little old Italian men arguing with one another while waving a cannoli in the air. In the case of Toronto’s Little Italy neighbourhood, it’s all that and so much more.

Shop, Dine, Explore, Live, Celebrate: that may as well be the motto of this trendy up-and-coming neighbourhood that takes pride not only in its historic homes, but also in the quality of life it has to offer its residents. Purchasing a piece of Bloorcourt Village real estate is like purchasing a round-the-world plane ticket that’s an express route to the best Portugal, Japan, Korea, Greece, Italy and the Caribbean have to offer. Bloorcourt Village homes may carry a Toronto postal code but whenever you step outside your front door, you’ll feel like the world is at your feet.

Toronto is already lauded for being a diverse metropolis full of possibilities for people of all ages and ethnicities, but no where in the city will you find a more varied array of cultures than in the Bloorcourt Village neighbourhood. Located along Bloor Street West, from Montrose Avenue to Dufferin Street, Bloorcourt Village is an eclectic mix of Portuguese, Italian, Greek, Japanese, Korean, Ukrainian, Ethiopian and Caribbean cultures all mixed in with a little of Toronto’s own urban-Canadian flavour.
