Leaside “more desirable” (groan) because of shiny condos

Call it a big lie or just slightly hysterical business promotion, but this kissy-kissy story from Toronto Storeys sees high-rise development in Leaside as a boon to the community. It begins:

Toronto’s historically-exclusive Leaside neighbourhood, beloved for its Bayview strip, many a small business, and an overall elegant vibe, is becoming more accessible, and arguably, more desirable, thanks to a handful of shiny new condo developments and the anticipated Eglinton Crosstown light rail transit (LRT) line.
