With a nickname like “Roncy” and streets called “Sunnyside Ave” and “Parkside Ave”, who wouldn’t get excited about Roncesvalles? First of all, the entire west side boarders High Park which offers up 400 acres of trails, sports venues, picnic spots and dog freedom. Roncesvalle Ave is chalk full of independent grocers, health food stores, cafes, restaurants, art stores and the list goes on. Every year, you can celebrate Polish style at the local street festival. Plus, the area is well served by public transit and healthcare—both St. Joseph’s Health Centre and the TTC call Roncy home.
