You'll find verdant front lawns complementing old Georgian-style homes, bungalows, and cottages along with newly developed town-homes and condominiums throughout the suburb.
Memorial gives residents a break from the urban streets of the city with admirable parks in and around the neighborhood. Edith L Moore Nature Sanctuary is great for relaxing hikes and wildlife sightings across 18 acres of land.
