TRINITY BELLWOODS

Located between College Street on the north and Queen Street West on the south and between Bathurst and Dovercourt lays the neighbourhood of Trinity Bellwoods, which also forms part of the West-Queen-West district. During the early part of the 20th century the neighbourhood became a landing site for immigrants of various nationalities, including Portuguese and Italian, which helped define much of the neighbourhood's character for the next seven decades.

Recently a 1000 square foot suite sold in multiple offers for over $600,000.
