Mount Pleasant East

Often called the East Side's hidden gem, Mount Pleasant East is quirky, affordable and genuinely liveable. Its blocks began as generous single-family homes and now blend heritage character with fresh energy. A thriving arts scene, a cluster of craft breweries and standout dining give the area a creative, community-minded pulse.

Getting around

Main Street and Kingsway run along the neighbourhood's edges with frequent buses, and the Broadway-City Hall and Commercial-Broadway SkyTrain stations are close by. Getting downtown or across to the rest of the East Side is quick and simple.

Schools & family

A number of well-regarded public schools serve local families, and the walkable, tree-lined streets make everyday routines easy. Community parks and gathering spaces support an active neighbourhood life.

Shopping & lifestyle

The area is a magnet for craft breweries, tasting rooms, indie shops and beloved restaurants, with Main Street's retail run just a short walk away. Weekends here are made for exploring on foot.
