SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

beautifully simple and complex

4 | Southern California

The RE/MAX Collection

L

ife in Southern California is definitely different than anywhere else in the United States. Here we measure distance by the amount of time it might take us to get there - depending on traffic, it’s not 30 miles, it’s 30 minutes away. When referencing freeways, “the” always comes before the number; the 5 will take you up the coast. When the temperature drops below 65 degrees we are cold, yet no matter how cold it gets, the dress code in the winter is always shorts, flip flops, and a hoodie. If you don’t know what an “animal-style” burger and fries are then it is best not explained but experienced. And yes, we do complain when we go out of state and cannot find good Mexican food.

We are a complex dichotomy of characters and the land reflects our nature.

“There is something for everyone” may be one of the oldest clichés, but here in Southern California, there really is something for everyone. With a geographic region extending over eight counties, there is plenty of room to play, experiences to have, and more dining, shopping, and adventuring from north to south and east to west than one could imagine. And because it is Southern California, there are seemingly endless ways to relax.

Often referred to as SoCal, the area is comprised of the eight southernmost counties of Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, Santa Barbara, and Ventura. Heavily urbanized and industrialized, the build-up stretches along the Pacific Coast from Ventura through the Greater Los Angeles Area and the Inland Empire, and down to Greater San Diego.

The megalopolis of Los Angeles is the most populous city in California with a population of 4,042,000, and the second most populous in the United States. San Diego is the second most populous city in the state and the eighth most populous in the nation with a population of 1,307,402. Overall over 22 million people reside in Southern California, containing roughly 60 percent of California’s population, and it’s growing every day.

The RE/MAX Collection

They say you pay for the sun in SoCal, and that may be true. It is definitely one of the major draws to moving and living here. Many people believe the days are perfect, sunny, and 75. Most of the time that is true, but the weather can be a bit more complex than that. Southern California contains several different climates, including Mediterranean, semi-arid, and desert, with infrequent rain and many sunny days. Summers are hot or warm, and dry, while winters are mild, and rainfall is low to moderate, depending on the area. Although heavy rain can occur, it is unusual. This climatic pattern was alluded to in the hit song, It Never Rains (In Southern California). While snow is very rare in the Southwest part of the state, it occurs occasionally in the Southeast region of the state. May and June are the most interesting months for weather; as natives we suggest wearing layers. Californians understand all too well the phrases “May Grey” and “June Gloom;” this is when the marine layer is pushed inland from the ocean making the morning cool and grey. Usually by mid-afternoon inland it has “burned” off and the sun is in full force, but by the coast it can hang around a little longer than usual, often putting a damper on tourists’ plans.

The climate has a lot to do with the topography here. Many believe California to be flat, or simply just beaches and palm trees, but if you take a drive around you will find it is much more hilly and mountainous then one would originally believe. The Sierra Nevada’s run parallel to the coast and create a landscape that is steep yet serene as the cliffs and the coast collide.

With so many options, now that you’re armed with some basic knowledge and a few facts, where do you start when planning your vacation?

LOS ANGELES - THE CITY OF ANGELS Your trip begins in L.A. With a list of non-stop things to do, it can be a challenge to navigate, especially if you are not from here. We suggest starting in the coastal city of Santa Monica. With a wide white sand beach and a stand-out pier with carnival rides, Ferris wheel, and restaurants, you won’t be able to miss it! There is also outstanding shopping and plenty of restaurants on the Third Street Promenade right along the beach’s

The RE/MAX Collection

PANORAMA VIEW OF LOS ANGELES FROM RUNYON CANYON border. Follow the Santa Monica Boulevard northeast and visit the legendary Beverly Hills. Experience first-class shopping in first-class boutiques where names like Chanel and Prada are staples along Rodeo Drive. Continue east to Hollywood to stroll along the Hollywood Walk of Fame and visit the famous Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. Take a moment to get out of the car and stretch your legs along scenic areas like Griffith Park, Mulholland Drive, and view the Hollywood sign on Hollywood Boulevard and North Highland Avenue. Finish your L.A. experience with a visit to Universal Studios Hollywood, featuring movie-themed rides and back-lot tours. From there, head southeast to visit the most magical place on Earth and one of California’s most popular destinations: Disneyland.

Mountain, and Dumbo’s Flying ride, as well as new innovations like Star Wars Land, set to open in December of 2018. Visitors of all ages can still be wowed

by Main Street USA, Cinderella’s Castle, and the nightly show World of Color.

Make sure you grab a map so you don’t miss a single thing.

Disneyland is the mecca of all theme parks, and no matter how old you are this is where you want to be. A massive compound covering 85 acres in the Orange County city of Anaheim, it has been leading the way since 1955, happily inviting those of all ages to spend the day in the ultimate land of make-believe and magic.

This beloved destination serves up vintage classics like the Matterhorn, Space

Adjacent to Disneyland, and for those looking for more adventure, look no further than Disney California Adventure. We suggest getting a park hopper pass and staying for at least two days so you can be sure to enjoy all that both parks have to offer. We also highly suggest the FAST PASS, reducing your wait time in.

Transport yourself from world to world. See what the future has in store at Tomorrowland, blast into the past at Frontierland, enjoy a pirate’s cruise on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, and if you have little ones, Fantasyland is a must see. As you stroll around the park keep an eye out for Disney heroes and villains; if you’re lucky you may be able to snag a photo and get an autograph.

From Disneyland, hop on the 5 and follow the coast down to San Diego.

AERIAL VIEW OF DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO AND THE HARBOR

SAN DIEGO

is considered to be the more “laid back� of the two megalopolises.

Here San Diegans enjoy more of the surf, sun, and relaxed lifestyle. There are several major attractions to behold and you could easily spend a week here and not see everything. Just like L.A., San Diego is very spread out, so rent a car at the airport and start your adventures. Here are just a few of our favorites.

The world-famous San Diego Zoo, located just north of downtown, and the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, located in northeastern San Diego, are non-profit establishments that focus on the care and research of protecting endangered animals. The conservation efforts of both parks have helped animal species of all kinds, specifically the once almost extinct Southern White Rhino. Visitors can enjoy animals in their natural habitat and learn about the conservation efforts of the park and their visitors.

For a more leisurely experience, take a stroll around Seaport Village, located on the harbor. This quaint village offers shops of all kinds. As you walk along the

cobblestoned village path, stop in at the Harbor House for enjoyable dining, sit back and take in the views of Coronado just across the bay, and make sure to try the fresh seafood; after all you are right on the water.

Climb aboard wild rides and learn all about the beauty of the ocean at Sea World.

Learn about the importance of protecting our marine environments through hands-on learning. Let the feeder fish clean your hands, feed sting rays, see dolphins, sea lions, and much more at this packed-full theme park on Mission Bay Park, just 10 minutes north of downtown San Diego. Stay late in the summer to watch as the park closes to a blaze of fireworks.

From hiking to biking, surfing to riding, San Diego is a non-stop city that offers so much; it is easy to see why people come and never leave.

SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? COME AND VISIT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - JUST BE CAREFUL, YOU MAY NEVER WANT TO LEAVE!

TORONTO diverse and beautiful

TORONTO’S SKYLINE

The RE/MAX Collection

W

elcome to Toronto. This major Canadian city and capital of the province of Ontario is thought to be one of the most multicultural, diverse cities in the world. Over 140 languages are spoken here and over half of the almost 3 million residents were born outside of Canada. Despite its complex makeup, the city is thriving.

Located along Lake Ontario’s northwestern shoreline, Toronto is a dynamic city filled with soaring high-rises, but it is not all concrete and stone. Toronto incorporates many green spaces where residents can get away from the hustle and bustle of the energetic city, from the Queen’s Park to several others.

A global city and international centre of business, finance, arts, and culture, Toronto is the central hub of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), the most metropolitan area in Canada, which is anchored by the Golden Horseshoe, a heavily urbanized region. The capital covers over 630 square kilometres and 46 kilometres of waterfront shoreline.

The Toronto Islands and Port Lands extend out to the lake, allowing for a somewhat sheltered Toronto Harbour south of the downtown core.

VIEW OF THE TORONTO’S SKYLINE FROM THE CN TOWER

The city is mostly flat with gentle hills; the flat land is often interrupted by numerous ravines cut by the valley of the three rivers: the Humber River to the west, the Don River to the east, and the Rouge River at the city’s eastern limits. Despite its deep ravines, Toronto’s elevation is remarkably flat, but you do find a gradual increase as you move away from the lake. The other major geographical features, which affectsthe topography, are the escarpments, long steep slopes that separate level areas, usually caused by erosion or a fault. During the last Ice Age, the lower part of Toronto was beneath Glacial Lake Iroquois. Today, a series of escarpments mark the lake’s former boundary, known as the “Iroquois Shoreline.” The geography of Toronto has slowly yet dramatically changed over time. Originally, the Toronto Islands were a natural peninsula, until a storm in 1858 severed their connection to the mainland, creating a channel into the harbour. The peninsula was formed by longshore drifts, which took the sediments deposited along the Scarborough Bluffs shore and transported them to the Islands area.

The residents of Toronto experience a humid continental climate with warm, humid summers and cold winters, offering four distinct seasons, with considerable variance in length. As a result of the rapid passage of weather systems, the weather is variable from day to day and in all seasons. It can be noticeably cooler on many spring and early summer afternoons with the influence of Lake Ontario; the lake breezes, which mostly occur in summer, bring relief on hot days. The summer months offer very warm and humid temperatures with daytime highs often rising above 30°C, and sometimes surpassing 35°C. These almost unbearable temperatures are the reason many Ontarians escape to Cottage Country. Located an hour and a half to three hours northeast of Toronto, with over 250,000 lakes and an abundance of shoreline, it is the perfect place to cool off. Spring and autumn are usually the transitional seasons, with generally milder and cooler temperatures. The winters here are the exact opposite of the summers; they are cold and frigid with temperatures usually below 0°C, and cold snaps of below –10°C, often made colder by wind chill. Occasionally, they can drop below –25°C during winter – brrrr that’s cold! But Torontonians are resilient – when it gets cold they just change direction and go skiing instead! The top ski hills near Toronto are nestled around the Niagara Escarpment and Oak Ridges Moraine. While not a bonafide skiing destination, Ontario’s geography does allow for a decent skiing experience, especially for beginners and those who haven’t been exposed to the longer trails. From huge resorts like Blue Mountain to smaller clubs like Mansfield, there’s a lot to choose from within a two hour drive of Toronto.

INDUSTRY Toronto is a prominent centre for music, theatre, motion picture, and television production, and headquarters to one of Canada’s major national broadcast networks and media outlets. Its varied cultural institutions, which include numerous museums and galleries, festivals and public events, entertainment districts, national historic sites, and sports activities, attract over 25 million tourists each year.

Film and television is a major local industry. As of 2011, Toronto ranks as the third largest production centre for film and television after Los Angeles and New York, sharing the nickname “Hollywood North” with Vancouver. The film industry in Toronto helps employ over 25,000 people, offering talent both in front of and

as PATH, which is lined with retail establishments. This bustling shopping district is buzzing during the weekdays and business hours, but during the evenings and weekends, while the walkways remain open, the area is almost deserted and most of the stores are closed.

Toronto’s industry has led it to become a major metropolitan centre on the eastern seaboard of North America. The Financial District, at the downtown core, is bounded roughly by Queen Street West to the north, Yonge Street to the east, Front Street to the south, and University Avenue to the west, although in recent years, it has begun to expand past the general boundary.

The Financial District is home to numerous banking companies, corporate headquarters, high-powered legal and accounting firms, insurance companies and stockbrokers. The draw of such powerful companies has led businesses like advertising agencies and marketing companies to follow. Several of the towers and businesses in the core are connected by a system of underground walkways, known

The tallest free-standing structure in the western hemisphere would have to come from a city like Toronto. The CN Tower is a communications and observation tower that stands 553.3 metres high and is a prominent figure in the city’s skyline.

While Toronto may be filled with high-rises and business hubs, just as the people and geography are diverse, so is the array of public spaces. Nathan Phillips Square is the city’s main square in downtown, and forms the entrance to City Hall.

Yonge-Dundas Square, near City Hall, has also gained attention in recent years as one of the busiest gathering spots in the city. Other squares include Harbourfront Square, on the Toronto waterfront, and the civic squares at the former city hall, most notably Mel Lastman Square in North York. The Toronto Public Space Committee is an advocacy group concerned with the city’s public spaces. In recent

years, Nathan Phillips Square has been refurbished with new facilities, and the central waterfront along Queen’s Quay West has been updated with new street architecture and a new square next to Harbourfront Centre.

There are also many large downtown parks, which include Allan Gardens, Christie Pits, Grange Park, Little Norway Park, Moss Park, Queen’s Park, Riverdale Park, and Trinity Bellwoods Park. There are several parks along the waterfront and on the Toronto Islands. Larger parks are located in the outer areas and include parks like High Park, Humber Bay Park, Centennial Park, Downsview Park, Guild Park and Gardens, Morningside Park, and Rouge Park.

In the winter, Nathan Phillips Square, Harbourfront Centre, and Mel Lastman Square feature popular rinks for public ice skating. Etobicoke’s Colonel Sam Smith Trail opened in 2011 and is Toronto’s first skating trail. Centennial Park and Earl Bales Park offer outdoor skiing and snowboarding slopes with a chairlift, rental facilities, and lessons. Several parks have marked cross-country skiing trails.

TORONTO CITY HALL AND NATHAN PHILLIPS SQUARE

TORONTO’S LUXURY NEIGHBOURHOODS Toronto’s size and scope has led to stable and sustainable real estate growth in residential communities such as Rosedale and Yorkville, offering a range of properties; from high-rise condominium towers to Victorian heritage homes, cutting-edge modern architecture to stone mansions, and grand estates.

ROSEDALE

One of most affluent neighbourhoods in Toronto, located north of downtown and one of its oldest suburbs. One of the wealthiest and most highly priced neighbourhoods in Canada, it is known as the area where the city’s ‘old money’ lives, and is home to some of Canada’s richest and most famous citizens.

It was ranked by Toronto Life as the best neighbourhood to live in Toronto.

The beautiful suburb is built among three ravines, and full of cul-de-sacs and convoluted routes, which helps to keep the traffic to a minimum. The homes are mostly single-family with many at least 100 years old, and some former farmhouses that are closer to 200. Homes range from Edwardian and Tudor to the more common Victorian and Georgian.

LUXURY HOMES IN TORONTO

LAWRENCE PARK, named the wealthiest postal code in Canada in 2011 by Canadian Business magazine, is located in a setting of gently rolling hills, several parks, and a ravine. Lawrence Park offers shops, upper-tier schools, and recreational facilities, and many of the residents belong to The Granite Club, a sports and recreation centre. The homes here include a variety of architectural styles including English Cottage, Tudor Revival, Georgian, and Colonial-style designs. Most of these homes were built between 1910 and the late 1940s, although parts of the area have seen recent redevelopments.

FOREST HILL is one of Toronto’s wealthiest and most affluent neighbourhoods, located north of downtown. Conventional suburbs make up the majority of homes with large lots, similar building structures, and segregated land use. Most residential housing is based on the conventional suburbs; what makes Forest Hill distinct is that each building type is architecturally different from the others. The Upper Village is dominated by Tudor and Georgian styles, but the architectural styles range from French Colonial with terra cotta tiles to English country manors with sweeping lawns. Luxurious details such as sculpture gardens, porte-cochères,

and imposing gated entrances are quite widespread. You will not see many sidewalks here, as the streets are often very wide within the residential interior, but you will see many stop signs and speed bumps. The landscaping and the natural surroundings are also a large part of the character of the neighbourhood.

Pristine landscaping is a must and properties will have unusual trees and plants as well as intricate designed pieces of foliage that run along the front and sides as well as back of the houses.

THE BRIDLE PATH , often referred to as “Millionaire’s Row” is an upscale residential neighbourhood; here you will find large multimillion-dollar mansions and two to four acre lots sizes. Few roads pass through the area, contributing to the area’s exclusivity, as it was designed by its first developers. Forsey Page envisioned it as an “exclusive enclave of estate homes” and he built the neighbourhood’s first home – this home is credited as the catalyst for the development of the neighbourhood.

In the late forties, George Montegu Black, Jr. moved into the area and built a large mansion. In an effort to control who his future neighbours would be, Black set restrictions in place through the North York zoning by-law stating only single-

family dwellings could be built with a minimum lot size of two acres.

YORK MILLS

is commonly recognized as a “Millionaire’s Mile” alongside other neighbourhoods like The Bridle Path, Forest Hill, Lawrence Park, and Rosedale.

Homes in York Mills are highly distinguishable and contribute greatly to the proclaimed affluence of the neighbourhood. The area saw a housing price spike between 2001 and 2006, when property values increased by almost 50 per cent.

Half of the homes are single detached houses, with many that have been rebuilt and customized to taste. The other half are mixed between high-rise apartments and luxurious condos with concierge services.

All of Toronto’s luxury neighborhoods offer something for everyone, whether you are looking for a quiet lifestyle or something more grand and close to the city.

Toronto encompasses a large geographical area separated by several municipalities.

These municipalities have each developed a distinct history and identity over the years, and their names remain in common use among Torontonians. These communities express a character distinct from that of the skyscrapers in the

commercial core. The core of Toronto remains the most densely populated part of the city. Other neighbourhoods in the central city retain an ethnic identity, while the inner suburbs are mature and traditionally working-class areas, consisting primarily of single-family homes and small apartment blocks. During the 2000s, many neighbourhoods became ethnically diverse and have undergone gentrification, as a result of increasing population and the housing boom during the late 1990s. Outer suburban development boomed in the late 1940s, creating upscale neighbourhoods, planned communities, and mixing single-detached housing with higher-density apartment blocks. High-rise development in these areas has given the former municipalities distinguishable skylines of their own with high-density transit corridors serving them.
