Yonge + St. Clair

Yonge + St. Clair The official page of the Yonge + St. Clair community. Yonge + St. Clair is more than an intersection. It’s 4 corners and a vision. This is Yonge + St. Clair.

It’s a vibrant greenspace and a provocative mural. It’s an office with a downtown sightline, a workplace with a view. It’s a storied neighbourhood and it’s only getting better. This once lively neighbourhood has slowed, but we have a bright vision for its future. So in 2018 the local business community came together to form the Yonge + St. Clair BIA as a non-profit organization to drive community

initiatives, plan streetscape and economic development improvements, and execute local programs and events. The Yonge + St. Clair BIA now has an unprecedented opportunity to completely revitalize and reenergize the neighbourhood from the ground up – fast. In fact we’ve already begun, and even bigger things are coming.

DesignTO wrapped but the spotlight is still on.

Last week, DesignTO Awards Night celebrated artist achievements from Canada’s largest design festival which ran throughout January.

At Yonge + St. Clair, two exhibiting artists were recognized with People’s Choice Awards, tallying votes across 20 Toronto neighbourhoods:

Congratulations to:

✨ Cherie Leung
✨ Dhruvan Modugula on behalf of the TMU team, AJ Singh, Bill Tran, Mahlya Majeed and Zain Malik

Both awards reflect the value of coming together to build and create for communities.

Thank you to the DesignTO team, along with local sponsors Choice Properties and JLL Canada for helping bring new life to underused and vacant spaces across the neighbourhood.

We took an unannounced walk around Yonge + St. Clair to find low-key Valentine’s Day gift ideas.

All these shops are a 2 minute walk from the intersection. Here's what we found:

1) Paperboy Cards & Gifts 📍7 Pleasant Blvd. Fully stocked for Valentine's Day season, there are boutique and risqué cards that we can't post here but it's IN STOCK there.

2) Book City 📍 1430 Yonge St. They've decked out their entrance with Valentine's Day spirit. Kids and family books are also fully stocked at the back wall with fun and festive Valentine's books on display to round out your next book haul for you or the family.

3) PawMart. 📍 1402 Yonge St. Always a treat to visit their adorable dog treats, great selection in the back display ready for purchase. They even decorated their storefront with some Valentine's Day love💖

4) Eden Flowers. 📍 1391 Yonge St. Here's what they are saying: "These aren't all the Valentine's flowers that are coming, but there's roses as always" - shop owner @ Eden Flowers. We were to early for their new stock but fresh flowers are on the way.

We hope this helps your Valentine's Day gifting as you pass by Yonge + St. Clair this week👍

Two art pop-ups will be hanging around longer!

Although DesignTO is wrapping up, two installations at Yonge St. and Heath (📍 1521 Yonge St.) will continue to be showcased within their current vacant storefront locations.

These two artworks:
+ 'Many Colours, One Sky' by Paula Hartmann
+ 'Strata' by TMU

Both artworks capture themes of unity, diversity and bring a timely splash of colour to our winter streets. Go check them out during their extended stay in the neighbourhood, they are accessible at pedestrian level from Yonge Street at 1521 Yonge St.

A special thanks to our site partner Choice Properties for the extended pop-up duration and DesignTO for another artful season.
