3.Transit Options

Amsterdam Urban Towns is in a convenient corner of East York thats only expected to get more and more convenient in the next few years. Thats because quite soon, the Eglinton Crosstown LRT is expected to be finished, and will have a stop very close by.

The projected completion date of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT is set for 2022, which is in the same ballpark as Amsterdam Urban Towns. When its completed, residents of the area will have an easy connection across the GTA and a simple connection to the TTC subway line 1.

The LRT stop in question, OConnor Stop, will be at the corner of Victoria Park Ave and Eglinton, and will be only a 15 minute walk from Amsterdam Urban Towns. This will be a game-changer for the neighbourhood, and will make this East York townhome feel much closer to downtown.

Connecting to the TTC is easy too, a simple 20 minute bus ride connects residents to Coxwell Station on the TTC Line 2, allowing for smooth travel east-west across the city, as well as an additional connection to Line 1.

By car, Amsterdam is already quite convenient €“ easy connections to the Don Valley Parkway mean commutes across the GTA are simple.

5.Investment Opportunity

This corner of East York is a convenient, bustling area, and its expected that within the next ten years, this market will be heating up a great deal. With the completion of the Eglinton Crosstown, Topham Park, OConnor-Parkview, Parma Court, and the surrounding areas will be seeing a large influx of development as infrastructure makes transportation in the area much more convenient. A northern pocket neighbourhood, this region will soon find itself with a great deal more attention from developers looking to capitalize on this relatively downtown area.

As condos rise and townhomes fill into the neighbourhood, property values are likely to increase greatly, making this area a smart place to look into investing.
