Welcome to my newsletter for November!
 
If you're fortunate enough to live in Cabbagetown, you know the neighbourhood doesn't change because it's one of the city's Heritage Districts. However, some parts of the city are about to change dramatically, such as the intersection of Yonge and Gerrard. Scroll down for some truly astonishing skyscrapers.
 
Also in this issue: the city's best Dim Sum and what's happening in the market. Later this month, don't miss the 50th Calvalcade of Light which takes place on November 26th, as does the Cabbagetown Holiday Kick Off .
 
I also have a luxurious two bedroom, two level suite available in a renovated Victorian mansion available for sale.
 
If you are considering making a move this year, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
