Living In Riverside

A revitalized neighbourhood with history and charm.

In Riverside, everything old is new again. There’s a renewed pride of ownership in the community that’s evident in the area’s award-winning beautification and revitalization projects, which include pedestrian lighting and facade restoration.

There’s still a gritty urban charm to the neighbourhood; some would describe the area as Bohemian due to the eclectic and artsy businesses along Queen Street, and mingling of people from all walks of life.

  • Riverside real estate is within walking distance to plenty of independently owned stores including funky fashion boutiques, home decor stores, and gift shops.
