Townhouses in Knight

Knight – Community Information

Townhouses in Knight will place you in a solid neighbourhood among people of all ages and stages. As an Eastside community, the boundaries stretch approximately from East 16th to 54th and from Argyle to Elgin.

Knight Street is an eclectic neighborhood that offers hardworking families a relatively affordable entry point into the housing market.  As an artful combination of multi- and single-family homes, Knight mixes it up architecturally speaking. Houses constructed in the 1940s and 1980s blend in harmoniously with the new suburban townhouses and low-rise developments springing up today. And while residents enjoy an easy downtown commute,  this up-and-coming community has a charm all its own. Most notably, the lovely Kensington Park now features a new community centre with amenities such as fitness and dance studios, a preschool education centre, pottery studio, and more classes and courses than can be crammed into a yearlong calendar. Tiny retail pockets scattered all around the community offer convenient access to the everyday necessities.  The Kingsway intersection, in particular, offers access to a grocery store, pharmacy, as well as a plethora of small mom-and-pop style restaurants and shops. As a family-based community, it’s no surprise that Knight is well served by both public and private schools. Dickens Annex, Lord Selkirk Annex, McBride Elementary, Sir Sandford Fleming Elementary, Tecumseh Elementary, and Tecumseh Annex all cater to elementary students, while John Oliver Secondary, Gladstone Secondary, and David Thompson Secondary offer good accessibility to middle school and senior students. Private schools in and around the area include Stratford Hall, St. Joseph’s School, Khalsa School, and St. Andrews.
