$844,900 will buy you this two bedroom, two bathroom suite on Toronto's east side. Located in the Printers Row Lofts at 525 Logan Avenue, the three-storey unit (yes, it's three storeys!), is the ideal pad for a hip professional or couple seeking a quiet residential space instead of a soaring glass high-rise.

Originally the headquarters of Bell Telephone and later a printing factory, the loft conversion by Bob Mitchell is a contemporary building plunked down in the middle of a residential street. Surrounded by semi-detached houses, the lofts are trendy and a refreshing change in this Riverdale neighbourhood, close to Withrow Park and just south of the Danforth.

The south-facing unit features an open living room, a modern galley kitchen, drenched in 50 shades of grey and stainless steel appliances. The second floor is the mezzanine office/den/love nest overlooking the main floor, a second bedroom and a third floor master with a rooftop deck.

Although the maintenance is lower than most condos at $686/month, watch for hidden fees in a smaller building. With only 12 units, if anything goes wrong, there's a shared responsibility for covering costs and repairs. Still, this chic pad offers more pros than cons. Check out the photos below and see if you agree.

GOOD FOR

A large space for under a million. This unit is bigger and cheaper than most row houses more centrally located, and includes a rooftop deck, storage locker and one underground parking spot.

MOVE ON IF

There's no elevator. While only two flights of stairs, it might feel like an uphill battle if you're carrying groceries or just had a long day at work. It's not ideal for young families, even if lugging a stroller or a spirited toddler will burn a few calories.

The 2015 Beaches Jazz Festival in Toronto runs over three weekends from July 10th to 26th. The festival is in its 27th year running and has expanded beyond jazz to showcase world music, indie rock, a cappella and everything in between. This year's festival features more than 100 bands, workshops, community art projects and even a Pan Am celebration.

Here are my picks of what to do and see at the 2015 Beaches Jazz Festival.

Farmers' Market Jazz Series / July 9-19
Shop at two of the city's best farmers' markets to the tunes of live bands. Join the Toronto All-Star Big Band and Discovery Through the Arts on July 12th and 19th at the The Leslieville Farmers' Market, and on July 9th and 16th at the East Lynn Park Farmers' Market.

Pan Am Fiesta / July 10-12
This year's festival kicks off with a Pan Am celebration in Woodbine Park, as two main stages showcase the international diversity represented in the games. Belgian electronic duo Arsenal headline with local 8 piece funk band KC Roberts & The Live Revolution on July 10th. Look out for the Pan Am Indie Stage, which will bring a mellow indie rock vibe featuring the likes of Faye Blais and Sultans of String.

Jazz In Motion / July 11-20
Thanks to a 2014 Ontario Trillium Foundation Community Grant, this year the Beaches Jazz Fest is adding four new multi-arts initiatives to its usual photo exhibition programming. Among these is the Community Mural Workshop Project, which will feature a kids mural station by the Youth Stage, and an all-ages mural workshop by the Pan Am Indie Stage and Party Island Stage.

Beaches Tune Up Jazz Run / July 12
This annual run raises funds for patient care at the Toronto East General Hospital. Join others on the Beaches Boardwalk for an early morning walk, jog or run that lets you set the pace: 5k, 10k or 20k. This event serves as an official training run for the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon in October - which means it's the perfect low-pressure supportive environment to assess your fitness level and set a marathon goal.

SING! A Cappella Stage / July 17-19
New to the Jazz Fest, this year features an a cappella stage in Woodbine Park with some of the best vocal talent our city has to offer. If you're into traditional barbershop, catch the Yonge Guns Quartet on July 17th; if you're into modern pop, Countermeasure might be more your style on the 18th; and if you're into indie, relax with The O'Pears on the 19th.

Music Workshops - July 20-22
This year's free jazz lectures and instrumentation workshops continue, this time featuring a group ukulele jam. Appropriate for all ages and run by local pros, you're going to want to register early to get in.

Taste of Jazz / July 21-22
Join the line-up of 15 gourmet food trucks surrounding the Main Stage area in Woodbine Park on July 21st and 22nd from 5-10pm. Grab a burger and head to the beer and wine garden to enjoy while listening to the sounds of the Quincy Bullen Band and the Toronto All-Star Big Band.

StreetFest / July 23-25
The final signature event of the festival, StreetFest is a big musical street party that takes over a two-and-a-half kilometre stretch of Queen Street East between Woodbine Avenue and Beech Avenue. Get ready for thousands of people to fill the streets as dozens of bands play three sets from 7:00pm-11:00pm nightly. While you're there, take a look at the windows of local businesses, as they compete to win a prize for best jazz themed window.

Kew Beach World Beat Stage / July 23-26
Located in the parking lot of the Beach United Church on Wineva Avenue just north of Queen Street East, this new stage combines spirituality with jazz music (and funk, world and soul), culminating in a Jazz Worship Service at 10:00am on July 26th.

Big Band Stage / July 24-26
The Big Band Stage in Woodbine Park is a celebration of music from the 1930s to the 1950s, with sounds from the Golden Era, swing dance demos and stage-side dance lessons. Join local dance students from Bees' Knees Dance school as they Lindy Hop, Charleston and Balboa to the sounds of the Swing Shift Big Band and Bob Cary Orchestra.

A wall of Campbell's tomato soup cans greets you as you enter the new Andy Warhol Revisited exhibition, running from July 1 to December 31 at 77 Bloor St. W.

As expected, prints of the pop-artist's most iconic works - think Marilyn Monroe and Queen Elizabeth - are peppered throughout the former retail space, a strange venue for an art show.

Yet, as curator Ron Rivlin told the Toronto Star, Yorkville is right where Warhol would have wanted the exhibition. And, it's a fitting spot considering Warhol made high-art out of the most mundane objects.

Rivlin, an entrepreneur and Toronto expat who currently lives in LA, enjoys a successful career in the music industry. He began collecting Warhol artworks and eventually opened the Revolver Gallery in Beverly Hills to share his collection with the public.

Now, he's brought a taste of the Revolver home. And for six months, Torontonians can feast on a smorgasbord of prints and paintings at the city's largest Warhol exhibition since the AGO's 2006 Warhol/Supernova show.

With black and white striped floors, the gallery space reflects the eclectic and glittery sensibilities that Warhol's famous for. But Warhol Revisited offers more than just fodder for dorm room walls.

One alcove is lined with images of the Socialites - rich patrons who commissioned portraits from Warhol. These are what funded his infamous Factory studio space in New York City. Prints from Warhol's 1981 Myths series - with images of legendary characters including Mickey Mouse, The Wicked Witch of the West and Santa Claus - line another wall.

Marilyn aside, celebrities such as Jane Fonda and Truman Capote also make an appearance. These quintessential portraits are located throughout the gallery, along with series such as Ads from 1985, which harken back to the artist's days in the advertising industry.

There are also lesser-known works on display, such as the abstract painting Shadow from 1977 - a far cry from Warhol's usual pomp and glamour. Warhol's venture into landscape work is also represented with prints from 1977's Space Fruit series.

While Warhol Revisited doesn't feel like Canada's largest Warhol show to date - perhaps because of the venue - fans of the artist and pop art will appreciate its offerings. Though for a small exhibition, the $10 ticket price may be a little steep.

Andy Warhol Revisited runs July 1-December 31 at 77 Bloor St. W. Tickets: $10 for adults, $8 for seniors and $5 for youth and students. Children under age five are free.

Toronto's top new shoe stores have a little something for everybody. Strewn across the city, these spots differ in stock and story - each one catering to a particular niche. So, whether you're looking for a platform, fancy stiletto, double monks-straps or designer duds, they've got you (and your feet) covered.

Here are my picks for the top new shoe stores in Toronto.

Smoke + Ash
West Queen West boutique Smoke + Ash (previously known as Sauvage) is a fashion minimalist's dream come true. Though it's mostly stocked with truly unique (yet wearable) women's clothing, the shoe wall is teeming with ultra-sleek footwear to go with any outfit -- like Jeffrey Campbell mules and Senso slides.

Kiton
Kiton, one of the world's most expensive menswear brands, opened in Yorkville just a couple of months ago to offer Torontonians $20,000+ suits and the shoes to go with them. Their house brand footwear covers anything from swanky sneakers to luxury loafers, but a soon-to-open Santoni Shoes within the space is guaranteed to take it to a whole 'nother level.

Park & Province
After a year of peddling menswear and apothecary to the stylish and well-groomed, Park & Province finally opened a brick-and-mortar right by Trinity Bellwoods. Their clothing is curated to a T with quality brands you may or may not have heard of, and their shoe selection covers anything from classic New Balance sneakers to Thorocraft oxfords.

Studio D
For women's footwear with flair, Studio D at Yonge & Eglinton carries (mostly) Italian brands like Missoni and MSGM for the uptown girl with more edge than your average. The many bedazzled stilettos may be first to catch your eye, but their selection of printed sandals and pumped up kicks from $195 - $875 are definitely worth a second look.

Q&S
Q&S plopped itself right in the heart of Queen West, offering a slew of hard-to-find European footwear at reasonable price points. Find both men's and women's shoes for every occasion, including comfortable, everyday flats by Caprice, workwear shoes by IMAC and flashy pumps by Högl.

On the heels of announcing plans for a sprawling new location on College St., the latest news regarding wildly popular board game cafe Snakes & Lattes is that it's the star of a new television show.

Dubbed simply "Snakes & Lattes: The Show," the sitcom is thoroughly inspired by the staff and patrons of the cafe, as well as board game culture, which continues to rise in popularity. While the cafe in the series is fictionalized, there's no doubt as to its source material.

"I know first hand that Snakes & Lattes is filled with hilarious and genuine people that don't shy away from being themselves," explains direction Drew Dafoe. "The show hopes to capture exactly how board games help the community connect to each other and everyone who walks through their doors."

Filming for the initial episodes wraps in the next couple of days with an eye towards a September air date. The series will stream online for free, which is sure to attract some serious attention to the new location. Talk about good timing.

Boxcar Social has brought its specialty cafe-bar hybrid to Riverside, and what a beauty of a place it is. Highlighting third-wave coffee roasters from outside of Toronto and offering tasting flights for both coffee and booze, this is the ideal place to spend your days and nights.

Read my profile of Boxcar Social in the cafes section.

In the wake of the news that the TTC plans to go token and ticket free by 2017, our beloved transit system has also just announced they'll offer riders the ability to purchase fares using soon-to-be rolled out smartphone apps.

Branded TTCconnect, the new ticketing option will be available early this month and offer Single Day and Group passes. Riders will be required to create an account in the app and use a credit card to complete the purchase.

The timing of the launch is, not coincidentally, tied to the Pan Am Games as Toronto is expecting an influx of visitors in need of public transit. While transit will be free to those with a Pan Am Games ticket, there's still likely to be some increased demand for day and group passes during the summer months.

Will you be using TTCconnect? Let us know in the comments.

This new King West club boasts bottle service, simple decor and a unique patio. In fact, it's greatest quality is how inoffensive the place is. Will that be enough to differentiate the place from the competition? Quite possibly, yes.

Read my review of Same Nightclub in the bars section.

It was a dramatic day at City Hall as taxis made their case for Toronto to shut down Uber. Representatives from all the major cab companies were on hand to reinforce their view that the unregulated, upstart car service is illegal and a danger to the public.

Taxi drivers also claim a decline in income and suggest the industry will be destroyed if Uber continues to operate. Their cries echo last week's violent outburst in Paris that resulted in burned cars, blocked roads and the help of the riot police to restore order.

According to the CBC some taxi drivers hinted today that a Paris type revolt could be coming to Toronto if the City doesn't act soon.

Where do you stand - should Uber be allowed to continue to operate in Toronto? Let us know in the comments.

The best gelato in Toronto values tradition, quality and craftsmanship but isn't afraid to have a little fun when it comes to flavours. These artisanal gelato makers stock not just the old school Italian standards, but gets creative with Asian ingredients and booze-spiked variations.

Here is the list of the best gelato in Toronto.

Pizza is universally loved and if you find yourself in the Markham or Richmond Hill area there will certainly be no shortage of options. Whether you're after gourmet or takeout, authentic or off the wall, good pizza is plentiful in these parts.

Here are my picks for the top pizza in Markham and Richmond Hill.

Abruzzo Pizza
The go-to for pizza in Richmond Hill, this take-out spot has an expanded dining room allowing you to enjoy their spectacular pizza on site. The sauce here is what makes their pizza so good, with the perfect blend of herbs.

Cucina Locale
This cozy restaurant off Highway 7 is all about authenticity. While they may be known for their Italian sandwiches, their pizza is equally as good. With traditional toppings like prosciutto, rapini or grilled eggplant this pizza will deliver big flavour.

Nonna's Oven
Their stone oven makes all the difference. With a great mix of pizza and panzerotti options, choosing will be the hardest part. For something different try the 'Firenze' which comes with potato, caramelized onion, goat cheese, and black olives.

Marca Trattoria
This Main St. Markham gem boasts three locations and with good reason. The menu here consists of Italian classics including stone oven pizza. With a few mainstays and a daily feature the pizza and panzerotti here are real winners.

Nonna's Original Italian
Nonna's is a Markham favourite for all things Italian. Their pizza options are simple, with a focus on authenticity. The handful of pizza combinations such as margherita or primavera are served on a thin crust with the perfect ratio of cheese to toppings.

Levetto
Levetto's brand is growing, now with 5 locations across the province. While the homemade pasta is noteworthy, the pizza is just as impressive. Square slices full of traditional toppings make this a must for your next pizza craving.

Ferrovia
This warm, dine-in restaurant has an excellent pizza menu with options of white or whole wheat crust. Prosciutto, sausage, grilled chicken and brie cheese are among the toppings available making for some interesting and endless combinations.

Fellini's Italian Eatery
This family run restaurant provides a vast menu of home-style Italian classics. Thin or thick crust pizzas are available with plenty of traditional toppings to choose from. They have great take out deals and pizzas of all sizes.

That's Italian Ristorante Express
A casual off-shoot of their Woodbridge location, That's Italian Express has an impressive number of pizza options. Whether you're creating your own or choosing one of their combos you'll get fresh ingredients in a relaxed setting.

Smash Kitchen & Bar
Smash is all about comfort food. Their coal fired pizza boasts eclectic options ranging from BBQ chicken pizza to a Greek inspired pizza. If you're watching your bank balance, drop in on a Monday when all Pizza's are $10.

These are my picks for the top pizza places in Markham and Richmond Hill. Is your favourite spot missing? Add your suggestions to the comments.

Uh-oh, the Pan Am Games might be getting a lot of attention for traffic woes (stalling in the 6), but tourists don't seem to be that fired up according to Toronto's hotel owners, who report lower bookings than last year at this time.

A report in the National Post falls short of specifics, but communicates worry on the part of Greater Toronto Hotel Association. Pan Am Games organizers have confidently claimed that low early ticket sales were not a concern, but there's been little indication that the tide has turned in the days leading up to the sporting event.

What do you think? Will the Pan Am Games be a flop?

Taste of Toronto returns for its sophomore year to Fort York this weekend, running through until Sunday, July 5. We sampled the goods on the first night to help you suss out which dishes are worth waiting in line for (hint: there's a lot).

Here are the top 35 dishes at Taste of Toronto this year.

90 Sumach is one of those Toronto buildings that kinda fades into the background. Located just north of Queen St., the structure currently serves as a loft space, but was once a prop house for the CBC. In other words, there's a lot of history built into this place.

A new documentary about the building tries to pull this rich heritage into focus, partially as a way to commemorate its history and partially as an antidote to the popular idea that Toronto is a city that lacks an architectural legacy worthy of talking about.

While 90 Sumach might not be an especially stunning building, to hear current residents and former workers talk about it, you immediately understand its cultural stature. The CBC did some of its best set design work here for over 40 years. It was a hub of creativity, and clearly some of that energy remains even as the space was long ago converted to lofts.

Take a tour through a forgotten bit of Toronto history via this doc on 90 Sumach.
