The rumours about the neighbourhood finally getting an LCBO location have been confirmed. A new store will be opening this spring or summer alongside the Loblaws and Zellers in the retail plaza on the East side of Dundas. St. south of Bloor.

I know what many of you are thinking - that's not quite in the village. It's true that in terms of convenience many local residents will still be closer to the Parkdale LCBO, but the selection should be worth the relatively long walk or short drive. The new store will boast 5,600 sq. ft. of retail space so the selection should far surpass both the Parkdale and Bloor West locations. It will be very close in size to the Liberty Village store which has 5,500 sq. ft of shopping area.
