For years, it wasn’t much of a contest. Queen West vs. Queen East? Come on. Bloor West Village vs. The Danforth? Please. Trinity Bellwoods Park vs. Moss Park? Not even close.

Ha! I grew up around the Danforth and Scarborough area so you must forgive me for my abject skepticism. I’ve been out of Toronto for five years now, making Manitoba my temporary home. I’m moving back however in the summer of 2009. I will probably rent a condo in “The Verve” for a year (The irony isn’t lost on me) before trying to snatch at a piece of real estate at “Aura College Park”.
