We have a room to fill at The Shire for July 1st.   The rent  is currently about $730 which includes:
  • All hydro included (power, water)
  • Amazing (really) renovated loft space with 2 story high ceilings you can even use for rock climbing practice.  We've done it.  Big common area with a work area.
  • Skylight in main space
  • Cable TV/Cable Internet (Rogers Extreme, 600kb/second sustained) with a wireless network, 1tb+ of crap available locally
  • 18' home theater projection system with XBOX and XBOX360 (once in a while thing - it's huge and dominates the main room)
  • Dishwasher.  Yes, really and truely.
  • 4 sets of coin operated washer/dryers
  • Air conditioner
  • A whole parking lot in front of the place, with enough space to park your flatbed truck
  • Front deck
  • About a 15 min bus ride to Dundas West station (about 20 mins walking, but the bus is pretty regular)  About 20 mins to get to the core (Spadina/Queen area) in rush hour, and about 30-40 minutes during off-peak.  I had reservations at first but it's not bad.
  • Great local community of artists, computer geeks, bakers of both greens and goods (vegan bakery 3 doors down), film types, musicians, photographers...  Lots of spontaneous BBQ's in the common courtyard.  It's not intrusive -- you can participate when you like.
  • Includes two housemates, me (this is my site, I work at TUCOWS), and Nab who's a telecom/internet business dude.
