Real estate here reflects the neighbourhood`s variety of demographics and life stages, from affluent North Riverdale`s renovated Victorian and Edwardian semis to brand-new condos at Broadview and Queen, in the mixed-income, up-and-coming area of Riverside (anchored by the hip new Broadview Hotel). Chinatown East centers around the intersection of Broadview and Gerrard, while Greektown extends eastward along Danforth.
