A few weeks back, around 11pm, we heard a lot of commotion outside our front door (which is unusual during these times). We went to see what was happening and we were saddened to see a house around the corner from us was on fire. The house was a row house, and the direct neighbours had also vacated their premises. The fire and police department were on the scene and working to get things under control. Luckily, no one was badly hurt, but obviously there were damages to the property and possessions. This was a wake-up call for us: to ensure we had done everything we could to prevent a fire and to make sure we were prepared if we found ourselves in a fire situation. Today, we will share with you a checklist to make sure you are ready for a fire (and hopefully a fire never occurs).

Situated just east of the core, the Danforth is a great little family pocket that runs from Broadview to Greenwood along Danforth Ave, and running slightly north and slighty south. Home to many great parks, restaurants, boutiques and Toronto’s beloved Greektown, the Danforth is a desirable neighbourhood to call home. We love how accessible this area is (having the DVP and Gardiner access), but also how removed from downtown it feels. It is also situated along the Bloor subway line, which makes it even more convenient for those commuting into the core. One of our top hoods (we have perused for houses here!), we’re excited to share some of its highlights. And when we say some, we really mean it - there are many, many things missing from this list. We encourage you to explore and get to know this awesome neighbourhood for yourself!
