The next storey I have a weird thing about elevators - and I know I’m not alone. I’m not afraid of them by any means, I’m just not a fan. The TV monitors that flash news clips and fun trivia have slightly improved the situation, but I still find them awkward and uncomfortable.

Plus, I hate the wait.

I’m impatient. It’s a personal thing, so yes, I dislike having to ride elevators.

I admit to it. But it’s not just the wait, it’s the waiting with people. I’m a very social person, and sometimes I like to chat - but sometimes I just don’t. I want to come and go without having to chat. Is that so wrong?

And then there’s the anti-social aspect of them. You get on and off with people you see every day, your neighbours, yet everyone acts like total strangers, staring at the numbers as they light up – like that’s so intriguing.

But we feign interest just so that we don’t have to make eye contact – or

+ get social 8

YPNEXTHOME.CA

any contact at all.

And then there’s the animosity that poor elevator etiquette can cause. I find that, especially in highrises, and when you have to rely on the elevators day in and day out, there are some real pet peeves that can quickly get under your skin and can damage relationships between neighbours.

Holding everyone up; kids pressing all the buttons; not holding the elevator when someone is running for it; talking too loud; staring. Is your elevator etiquette up to par?

Whether you love them or you hate them, ultimately, they’re necessary – and the flipside is, they enable you to live in a home with a spectacular view.

That’s definitely worth the wait!

Whether it’s an elevator ride away or a lowrise home, when you make your move, let Renters Guide help. Check us out online at YPNextHome.ca, and get ready to rent your new home!

ARE YOU AN EASTENDER OR A WESTENDER? The battle over which side of Toronto reigns supreme rages on between the easties and the westies, but Briarlane has both sides taken care of when it comes to living in style with a trendy address.

Eastenders, your time has come. The east has grown up – and downtown east rentals have become the much-soughtafter destination for many of Toronto’s urbanites. For you, Briarlane has 33 Gamble Ave. Just north of The Danforth, set in east of Broadview, these apartments are nestled into a quiet community near the DVP, just south of O’Connor. It’s also quite close to midtown and the draw of Bayview/Mt. Pleasant/Yonge and Eglinton. It’s in walking distance to the Bloor/Danforth subway line and has easy access to the highway. This is prime east side living.

It’s really a dream location for urban living, with restaurants, entertainment, music venues, boutique shopping, bakeries and all kinds of businesses and services all withing a few blocks of the front door.

The lowrise community offers chic design in these beautifully renovated suites. One-, two- and three-bedroom apartments offer designer features like stainless steel appliances, modern cabinetry, stone countertops, pot lighting, stylish plank flooring and a glass backsplash.

Suites enjoy open concept layouts, large rooms and balconies, for enjoying a bit of personal outdoor space. The building offers

onsite laundry and parking too.

For the committed westender, Briarlane definitely doesn’t disappoint! Again, a location that sits at the perfect point to take advantage of the neighbourhood, Beaty Apartments, at 40 Beaty Ave., brings you home to Parkdale, Roncesvalles and Liberty Village. This is a live-work-play location where businesses and services meet entertainment and nightlife, art and sports, the lake and beachfront too. There’s also 24-hour transit at the corner.

The area is very trendy, and Beaty Apartments offers the perfect home to match. Modern and renovated bachelor apartments feature built-ins to maximize function, plus modern cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a glass backsplash and gorgeous contemporary fixtures to finish the space with flair. This location also offers luxury furnished suites for those that want to find a turnkey solution for their next home.

Eastenders can get more information on 33 Gamble by visiting online at 33gambleapartments.com, where you can email about the building or call 416-7951739 for more information or to book a viewing appointment.

Westenders will want to touch base about Beaty Apartments by visiting beatyapartments.com and submitting an inquiry online, or call 416 839-8285 for more information or to make an appointment.

Family structure PARKDALE COMES AS CLOSE to anyone’s definition of eclectic and historical as it can get. Located in the west end of Toronto’s Queen Street West corridor, this neighbourhood is bounded by Roncesvalles Ave. in the west, the Canadian Pacific rail line in the north end, Dufferin St. in the east, and hugged by the Gardiner Expressway to the south.

This neighbourhood was an A-list address to some of the wealthiest Victorians of their time. Dating back 136 years, today this primarily residential area is a vibrant and diverse community, and its popularity as a trendy neighbourhood is growing.

The area showcases a collective of artists, funky cafes, ethnic restaurants, quaint B&Bs, vintage galleries, farmer’s markets and one-of-a-kind shops. The community supports local revitalization projects like the Urban Garden Development Project, and the Westend Food Coop connecting local

farmers and suppliers to local eaters.

The area includes Parkdale Junior and Senior Public School, and the historical Parkdale Collegiate Institute.

Little parkettes, Sorauren Park and the West Lodge skate park are other amenities for area kids.

Parkdale is a bike-, foot- and transit-friendly neighbourhood with TTC streetcar stops every few hundred metres, connecting to the subway. The Gardiner Expressway and Lakeshore Blvd. are very easily accessed from here. There is a neighbourhood GO station, plus Billy Bishop Airport is fairly close by.

The area has been in transition, with an abundance of hipsters and independents moving in and taking things up a notch or two. Many of the old shops and mom’n’pop food stops are being replaced by trendy and more expensive options catering to the cool crowd.

Advice | THE RENTALIST

Oh no, you found bedbugs

By Jackie Marchildon

IT’S EVERY RENTER’S WORST nightmare — finding bedbugs. They are creepy little buggers and they latch on like nobody’s business. Don’t worry, they have nothing to do with your cleanliness and it’s really just an unfortunate situation to be in. Here’s what you need to do.

1. Call your landlord and work with local pest control First things first — call your landlord. They will likely have a go-to company to call and an overall plan of action.

Generally speaking, you’ll find that most residential tenancies acts will establish that it’s the landlord’s responsibility to take care of a bedbug problem — for instance, it falls under emergency repairs in British Columbia and under the landlord’s need to comply with municipal healthy and safety standards in Alberta. Technically, landlords could file a dispute against you as the tenant if they felt you caused the problem (but they would need to prove the bedbugs were actually your fault).

The rates for bedbug removal services vary, but broadly, here’s what your landlord might expect.

British Columbia — Quote for a chemical treatment for a one-bed unit from OnSite Pest Control*: 366$ Alberta — Quote for a chemical treatment for a one-bed unit from Responders Pest Control*: $350-$450 (depending on the level of infestation) Manitoba — Quote for a chemical treatment for one-bed unit from A1 Pest Solutions*: $375 (under 1,100 sq.ft.)

Ontario — Quote for a chemical treatment for a one-bed unit from Bed Bug Exterminator Pro*: 360$ *Quotes are general (quoted over the phone or online) 2. Assess the situation and act accordingly How bad is the infestation? You don’t immediately need to throw everything 24

out in your unit while you wait for the exterminator to arrive.

Sometimes putting infested items outside or in the freezer can kill the bedbugs, but it would need to be at least -19 degrees Celsius and you’d need to leave the items in the cold for at least four days. Even then, there is no guarantee the cold will kill them all.

Wash everything you can in hot water and dry it all on the hottest dryer setting — mattress pads, bedding, clothing and curtains — everything you can. Place your clean items somewhere safe and sealed (use sealed plastic bags or bins with lids).

Throw out anything you cannot wash.

Steam clean your mattress if you think it’s salvageable. Otherwise, cut your losses and throw it out.

Wash everything you can in hot water and dry it all on the hottest dryer setting — mattress pads, bedding, clothing and curtains — everything you can.

3. Vacuum everything and everywhere Vacuum feverishly. Do not use a vacuum with a cloth bag because the bag can become infested. Bedbugs attach themselves to wood and fabric (and their eggs will stick to those surfaces too). Use a vacuum attachment to scrape all surfaces in your unit — including your bed if you’re keeping it. Vacuum any crack or crevice in your mattress, box spring, bed frame, furniture, in and around your baseboards, cushions, rugs, carpets, heating or air conditioning units, drawers — anything and everything must be vacuumed.

Wash all vacuum attachments in hot water and detergent and store your vacuum in a sealed plastic bag. If your vacuum has a bag, remove it and throw it out in a plastic bag, outside of your home. If your vacuum doesn’t have a bag, wash the dust container as well as the attachments.

All you have to do next is wait for pest control to arrive and officially rid you of the pesky little bloodsuckers!

Advice | RENTAL LIVING

Decoding Green Labels 101 A guide for consumers to navigate through all those ‘sustainable’ products Organic is a Canadian company that wears this label with pride. With 14 family farm producers, Harmony Organic is passionate about the quality of their dairy, their cows and the earth.

FROM “NATURAL” TEA, to “Green” cleaning supplies to “eco-friendly” clothing, there are endless products being marketed with claims that attempt to convince consumers that they are making the right decision when shopping.

“Canadians are concerned about the state of our environment and worker conditions, and are opting for more sustainable, conscientious products and services,” says Laurie Simmonds, president and CEO of Green Living Enterprises. “With companies using various ‘Green’ claims and labels now more than ever, it can be difficult to distinguish between what looks and sounds ethical and sustainable, and what actually is.”

Product certifications alleviate this challenge for consumers, as any certified product has undergone a rigorous third party evaluation; examining everything from environmental impact, ingredient procurement, worker conditions and compensation to name few. Choosing products with the following labels will help you shop smarter and feel more confident about your buying power:

While many may think it’s the most obvious, Fairtrade is often a confusing term. The Fairtrade mark means the ingredients in a product have 42

YPNEXTHOME.CA

been produced by small-scale farmer organizations or plantations that meet social, economic and environmental standards. Equifruit for example, is the Canadian market leader of Fairtradecertified bananas, with a large number of retail partners in Quebec and Ontario.

B Certified is to a business what Fairtrade is to fruit or coffee. Launched in 2006, B Certified companies meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability.

Dedicated to offering bee-derived superfoods, Beekeeper’s Naturals is a great example of a B Certified company that has undergone strict analysis and understands their overarching duty to the environment. It is one of 2,048 B Corporations in 50 countries around the world, all demonstrating a desire to make change and be part of something bigger.

Eating organic is one of the most popular ways to lead a healthier, more sustainable life. This can be made easy by purchasing products with the Canada Organic label and certification (define what it means – pesticides, antibiotics, etc..). Canada’s organic standards are among the most recognized in the world and Harmony

Sustainable food choices continue to be important to Canadians, changing the way they think about what’s on their plates. With overfishing being the biggest threat our oceans face today, consumers who choose to eat seafood can make a difference by choosing fish that is responsibly sourced or by visiting restaurants, like Hawthorne Food & Drink that use the Oceanwise symbol — an assurance against overfishing, harm to other aquatic creatures and protection of the marine ecosystem.

The Leaping Bunny logo is one to look out for when purchasing personal-care products and cosmetics.

Companies like Skin Essence Organics that are certified through the Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics, make a voluntary pledge to eliminate animal testing from all stages of product development.

“We are all trying to make better choices for our health and wellbeing that will help build a better world, with a healthy environment and strong communities,” adds Laurie.

“Learning about these various labels and certifications is a great step in that direction”.

This April, visit all of these peopleand planet-friendly certified companies, plus 400 sustainable companies at the Green Living Show taking place April 7th to 9th, 2017, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.

Medallion Corporation Tops off First Vision Tower Ajax Town Square event celebrates new edition to Downtown Ajax

AN ENTHUSIASTIC CROWD TIPPED

their hats to Medallion Corporation’s first Vision tower recently at a topping off ceremony celebrating big changes coming to Downtown Ajax. Mayor Steve Parish, Ajax Council and Medallion executives made history by launching the new landmark development by “signing off” directly on the foundational wall. The momentous occasion was celebrated with a larger-than-life top hat cake and drum line performance by The Hitmen.

A first-of-its-kind project for the Durham region, the dynamic mixeduse development will feature a rental apartment tower adjacent to Pat Bayly Square. Designed by Page & Steele/IBI Group, the building and square complement each other and will seamlessly integrate into the surrounding area. The convenient

52

YPNEXTHOME.CA

location also provides future residents direct access to the new civic center, a planned venue for cultural celebrations and a public skating rink.

“Support from the surrounding community and the Ajax Council has been astounding,” said Aaron Bleeman, Project Manager for Medallion. “This topping off of our first building brings us one step closer to realizing Ajax’s ambitions for its evolving downtown.”

Oakville-based Lukas Design Interiors created thoughtful spaces and suites that support the evolving urban lifestyle of Vision’s future residents. Additional building amenities like the theatre room, private dining room, games room, fitness room and outdoor roof top terrace create convenient spaces and dedicated areas to socialize with neighbours.

“This unprecedented development will act as the gateway to Downtown

Ajax. Our vision of an urban, pedestrianoriented, mixed-use vibrant downtown will soon be a reality,” said Mayor Parish.

“This collaborative project has been years in the making, and today’s topping ceremony is a celebration of that successful partnership.”

At the corner of Harwood Ave. and Bayly St., Vision’s the first building in this multi-phase project stands 25 storeys tall and will house 272 residential units.

Ranging from one- to three-bedroom suites, Vision will draw in families as well as singles, professionals and empty nesters to downtown Ajax. In addition to residential, the project will also host retail and office space, bringing vibrant commercial opportunity to the downtown.
