The lure of Leslieville/Riverside
It is a prediction that has been making the rounds for years now: Eventually, Queen Street East will become the new Queen West. No one seems to know when this change will happen, and east-end residents are quite happy with the Queen Street they have, thank you very much. But with several condominium and loft projects either completed or currently underway, there is no doubt that Queen East is on the verge of a radical transformation.
“It has the potential to be better than Queen Street West,” says Brad Lamb, president of Brad J. Lamb Realty Inc. and Lamb Development Corp.
Both companies are playing a major role in the development of Queen East, especially in Leslieville. However, these projects aren’t likely to radically alter the landscape of Queen East in the way condominium developments are poised to drastically change Queen West in the area near Gladstone Avenue. Thanks to zoning restrictions, condo projects in Leslieville can’t exceed nine storeys.
