The Queensway
Etobicoke’s fastest-changing corridor — newer midrise condos, street-level retail filling in, and the best value-per-square-foot in South Etobicoke.
Living in The Queensway
The Queensway has transformed faster than any other part of Etobicoke over the past decade. A corridor that was largely auto-oriented is now lined with modern midrise condominiums, restaurants, cafes and retail at street level.
It’s the value play in South Etobicoke: prices per square foot sit meaningfully below both downtown Toronto and the Humber Bay waterfront, in newer buildings, minutes from the same lake.
For drivers it’s arguably the best-positioned address in the west end — the Gardiner and 427 are immediate, and Sherway Gardens is minutes away.
Homes & prices
Predominantly newer midrise and highrise condominiums, including a substantial pipeline of pre-construction projects — many priced under the $1 million threshold that qualifies first-time buyers for the GST rebate of up to $50,000. Some townhome and older low-rise stock exists on the side streets.
Before you buy here
Growth corridor
Buying on a street that is improving around you is historically where condo appreciation shows up. This corridor is mid-transformation.
New construction
More pre-construction activity than anywhere else in Etobicoke — with first-access allocation advantages for buyers working with an agent.
Transit trade-off
No subway station on the corridor; riders connect to Kipling or Islington. Drivers get exceptional Gardiner and 427 access.
The Queensway questions
Is The Queensway a good place to buy a condo?
For value-focused buyers, yes — newer buildings, lower price per square foot than the waterfront or downtown, improving retail, and strong highway access.
Are Queensway condos a good investment?
Newer stock, comparatively low entry prices and steady tenant demand from young professionals make the rental math work better here than in many downtown pockets.
How far is The Queensway from downtown Toronto?
Roughly 15–20 minutes by car via the Gardiner off-peak; 35–45 minutes by transit depending on your connection.
