The elusive apartment, that rare bird, lives in old neighbourhoods and monstrous complexes. Shy by nature, this nearly invisible creature hides from those who stalk her.
Help me find her - she is a one bedroom built for two in east/downtown Toronto. She is a main or second floor, and smells OK. She's cheap, like all rare birds, and costs between $700 and $900 per month.

Will keep an eye out in our neighbourhood (we are Sibelius Park).

Check out Thorncliffe Park Drive. It's in East York (you did mention east, or is that too far east?) and it's a 10 minute bus ride from the Greek section of the Danforth (Pape Station). The building I lived was kind of expensive (we started out paying $840 for a gigantic 1 bedroom, and 2 1/2 years later it had gone up to $930). But I heard from others that my building was particularly expensive and that there are a few other buildings on the street that don't cost as much.

Speaking of which, I just found the perfect Apt for me! It's in the middle of the woods, and yet only 11km from work (that cuts my commute in *half*). Plus, it's got tons of room for all my stuff, and it's only $400/mo, heat and lights included, even!
Dawna, I wish you all the good fortune from the Apartment Fairy I can gather up - she seems to be smiling on me, so perhaps she'll help you too

HEHE. Thanks for the dust...now where the hell are the happy thoughts? I always fall for the Peter Pan types...
I actually had a bit of luck - this girl emailed me and said she would sublet for a month if I didn't find a place. YAY! That eases my desperation a little.
