city living in the living city

JAC is a location actually, it’s more of a destination. Jarvis and Carlton to be exact. Look up and all around to embrace a vibrant neighbourhood coming into its own.

A lively community that revels in the eclectic, reveres inclusivity and diversity and relies on its people to inspire and evolve its scene. Full of life, fueled by art, fashion, food and an urban green scene that says this is the ultimate downtown location.

live in the middle of it all

You just have to love a location that’s at the core of convenient non-stop living.

Life is good when you can walk or cycle anywhere you need to go. Whether heading out to work or school, shopping the trendy streets, grabbing a bite or meeting up with friends - you can count on your two feet to get you there.

a new area of Jarvis that echoes its iconic past

Historically, recognized as one of Toronto’s most fashionable neighbourhoods, Jarvis Street was once lined with the lavish mansions of some of Toronto’s wealthiest families.

As a landmark area with over 100 heritage designated buildings, plus a rich and storied past, this hotspot neighbourhood is poised for its latest resurgence once again – and JAC is at the forefront of this change.

The Jarvis and Carlton neighbourhood is preparing for a massive revitalization to address the lifestyle needs of a growing population, an influx of students and urban planning requirements for new business developments.
