Why Jones?

A little about why we have loved living and raising our family on Jones Street!

~ Phin Park - Community enhanced and landscaped with an ice rink in the winter & splash pad in the summer. Always lots going on like fireworks on Canada & Victoria Day! Great holiday spirit! On Halloween Ravina Street is decorated incredibly well and just about everyone on the street participates.

~ Easy walk to Withrow Park which has a great Farmers Market on Saturday's which runs summer through fall.

~ New Starbucks at Gerrard/Jones supports the revitalization of Jones.

~ Earl Grey Public School, just across the street on Strathcona & Jones, is going through a revitalization to it's swimming pool.  Closed this summer, but open after August, the pool offers swimming lessons, adult swims, fitness classes and family swims throughout the year.

~ Jones Public School converted to Toronto Board of Education continued learning centre. Very quiet, no bells, rarely anyone outside except for Saturday morning classes.

~ 40km speed limit on the street allows for quiet evenings with your family whether spending time together inside or out in the backyard.  Multiple cross walks, regulated by speed traps & speed indicating signs to ensure safety. Jones is always plowed first and quickly as well as the sidewalks after each snowfall (due to it being a large street). There are also bike lanes on both sides of Jones and its part of the city bike trail network.

~ Free parking for guests on both sides of the street until midnight every night of the week.  Lots of parking always available!

~ The Jones Street Cemetery is the second oldest Jewish cemetery in Toronto. It is well maintained and closed off to the public, so other than tours & photographs no one can wander in and out!

~ Jones is surrounded by a great diversity of communities including - The Pocket, Leslieville, Riverdale, Danforth, Little India and Chinatown.  Most within a walk from the house!

~ Two public libraries within walking distance as well as lots of local community centres.
