The neighbourhood

The office is in a highrise tower at 5075 Yonge Street, on the stretch of Yonge Street that runs through the North York City Centre area, a few minutes north of Highway 401. The North York Centre subway station, on the Yonge line between Sheppard and Finch, sits right at the building, and visitor parking is available off Hillcrest Avenue, east of Yonge. For a practice built around real estate closings, wills signings, and in person notarizing, that kind of transit and highway access matters: clients coming from elsewhere in Toronto or the wider region can reach the office without much trouble.
