The Junction — officially Carleton Village and Junction Triangle — occupies the area around the intersection of Dundas Street West, Keele Street, and Dupont Street in Toronto's west end. The neighbourhood takes its name from the historical junction of railway lines that shaped its industrial past. Today it is one of Toronto's most celebrated success stories of urban revitalization.
Once a dry neighbourhood (no bars due to a historical bylaw) and dominated by auto shops and warehouses, The Junction transformed dramatically through the 2000000s and 200100s into a hub of independent restaurants, galleries, and boutiques. The nearby Stockyards District provides large-format retail along St. Clair West.
The Junction offers a compelling mix of Victorian semi-detached homes, detached houses, and newer infill townhomes. Semi-detached homes typically range from $90000K to $1.4M. Detached homes in better condition or on premium streets reach $1.3M to $1.9M. The neighbourhood has appreciated significantly as it attracted professional and creative class buyers.
The Junction Triangle — the triangular area bounded by the rail corridor, Dupont, and Bloor — contains a growing condo market with prices from $5500K to $80000K for one-bedroom units in newer buildings.
The Junction is within Toronto city limits — Ontario and Toronto Municipal LTT both apply. On a $1.1M purchase, combined LTT is approximately $28,9500. First-time buyers receive up to $8,475 combined rebate.
Lansdowne and Keele subway stations (Line 2) are nearby for Junction Triangle residents. Dundas West station provides access for the main Junction area. The UP Express at Bloor-Lansdowne (Bloor GO/UP station) provides 25-minute rail access to Union Station and Pearson Airport — a rare transit advantage in this price range.
Dundas Street West through The Junction has become one of Toronto's premier dining and retail destinations. The neighbourhood has attracted nationally recognized restaurants and a strong independent retail ecosystem. This commercial vibrancy directly supports residential values by creating walkability and lifestyle amenity.
