Shopping Centre Profile
Bayview Village Shopping Centre is a destination shopping centre for the discerning customer who shops for unique merchandise, while enjoying an inviting upscale environment. Uniquely different within the shopping centre industry, we offer a lighter more contemporary atmosphere, inherent warmth and friendly “village” ambience.
Recently the shopping centre renovated and expanded within the west of the centre adding retailers such as Teatro Verde, The Foot Shoppe, new and expanded location for Sandro, Lusia Cerano, Black’s, Laura Secord and Belle de Provence just to name a few… along with a re-development to the attached Loblaws to a Super Loblaws.
With more than 95 retail stores and services, Bayview Village boasts numerous “one of a kind” ladies fashion retailers with shops with the latest fashion from France, New York and Los Angeles stores such as: Sandro, Morgan de toi, Honey, Mendocino and many more… Bayview Village is also proud to feature great Canadian designers such as Brian Bailey, Vivian Shyu, Sunny Choi and Linda Lundstrom.
Adding to the pleasure of shopping at Bayview Village is the wide variety of restaurants available including: Oliver and Bonacini Café. Grill a gourmet fare, IL Fornello a superior pizzeria, Letteri serving best panini’s in the city and Kabuki an authentic, modern Japanese sushi bar with the most experienced sushi chefs in the city.
Many of our merchants have been with the centre for twenty years, so with the newly renovated extension at the west of the shopping centre, we were able to attract new, high profile retailers and at the same time, provide additional square footage for long-term retailers who wanted to expand. Since the completion of the new development, sales results and traffic counts are showing double digit increases.
Bayview Village Shopping Centre is owned and managed by Orlando Corporation. Orlando Corporation throughout the years had strived to continue to improve and maintain Bayview’s leadership position within the industry and will continue to strive within years to follow.
Located at the corner of Bayview and Sheppard in Toronto, Bayview sets the standard for an exceptional shopping experience at an impeccable taste level.
Bayview Village is a neighbourhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, formerly in North York before it was amalgamated into Toronto in 1998. It is part of federal and provincial electoral district Willowdale, and Toronto electoral wards 24: Willowdale (East) and 33: Don Valley North (East). In 2006, it had a population of 15,370.[1]
The area is bordered on the north by Finch Avenue East, on the west by Bayview Avenue, on the east by Leslie Street, and on the south by Highway 401 also including the grounds of North York General Hospital, east of Leslie in the neighbourhood's southeast corner, according to the City of Toronto's definition.[1] The Bayview Village Association regards the east boundary as the Don River (east branch), and the south boundary as Sheppard Avenue East, thereby excluding land between the Don River and Leslie, Sheppard and Highway 401, and the hospital.[2]
Housing is mostly suburban, predominantly in the ranch bungalow style, built in the late 1950s and 1960s. Several of the street names recall that the area was a racehorse training stable and grounds before being developed.
Homeowners are actively represented by the Bayview Village Association. This is a volunteer group of residents who work to monitor city and provincial initiatives on a wide range of topics including traffic, local development, parks, and safety. In addition, they produce a regular newsletter distributed to all homes covering a wide range of topical issues. The Bayview Village Association also hosts a number of events throughout the year including clean-up days, all-candidates meetings, community fairs, etc..
There are three schools in the actual Bayview Village area, a public elementary, a public middle school and one private school housed in a former public elementary school. There is also a Catholic Elementary school located on the west side of Bayview Avenue. Most high school students who live in Bayview Village attend Earl Haig Secondary School, located west of Bayview.
In the area, there United, Greek Orthodox, Catholic, and Anglican churches, the latter is located just outside the area's southwest boundary.
The main shopping centre serving the area is also called Bayview Village, located at the northeast corner of Sheppard Avenue and Bayview Avenue.
Most of the houses are original. There has only been some limited infill housing (newly built houses replacing the older ones) within the Bayview Village area. Most homes have undergone renovation and landscaping to fit the park-like neighbourhood. New developments include high rise condominiums on the north side of Sheppard Avenue, on the south side of Bayview Village on the site of the former St Gabriel's Catholic church, and townhouse developments.
The recently built Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) Sheppard subway passes through the neighbourhood, including Bayview and Bessarion stations.
