Howard Park is located in casually hip and creative Roncesvalles village. This neighbourhood features lovely century homes, quirky shops, intimate coffee shops and great restaurants. The complete absence of chain stores means you can find memorable meals, fashions by local designers, handcrafted items and unique experiences. Bloor/Dundas subway, High Park, Parkdale and the waterfront are all a short walk away. It’s down to earth yet sophisticated. Historic yet hip. Roncey is the perfect balance of big city and small town – and it really is the prefect neighbourhood to call home.
Roncesvalles is known for its European ambience and small-town feel. This neighbourhood is popular with young families who appreciate the convenience of the location just west of downtown. The close proximity to High Park, Toronto waterfront bicycle and walking trails, easy access to public transit, and the Roncesvalles shops and restaurants are also popular drawing cards. The Roncesvalles Polish Festival, which takes place annually in September, attracts thousands of visitors. Roncesvalles Avenue is closed off for this festival that includes Polish dancers, children’s games and rides, polka bands and lots of food and refreshments. Roncesvalles Avenue is said to be a favourite among streetcar enthusiasts, who relish the fact that the stops are distanced far enough apart for the streetcar to build up some speed, and who appreciate the picturesque and lively atmosphere along the route.
