The neighbourhood

Enfield Wood's office is on Queen Street East in the Beach, the lakefront neighbourhood that runs along Toronto's east end. Queen Street East is the area's commercial strip, lined with small independent shops in low rise buildings, and the neighbourhood itself is built up mostly with Victorian and Edwardian houses along a sandy shoreline and boardwalk that opened to the public in 1932. It's a residential, family oriented part of the city, which lines up with a firm whose work leans toward real estate closings and wills and estates for people who live nearby.
