Location
2312 Wark Street is located at the fringe of Downtown Victoria, where the neighbourhoods of North Park and Quadra-Hillside meet. Its immediate adjacency to the Downtown area provides convenient access to and from the core, while also maintaining its quaint neighbourhood charm. The Quadra-Hillside community is bounded by three high-volume traffic routes – Bay Street to the north, Cook Street to the east, and Blanshard Street (Highway 17) to the west – and is characterized by a wide-variety of low-rise housing and tree-lined streets.
The commercial centre is known as Quadra Village, anchored by Fairway Markets and many eclectic shops and restaurants, all within an easy walking distance of the subject property. Wark Street runs parallel to Quadra Street and the 2300-block in particular features many beautiful, mature trees and early twentieth century single-family homes.
Closer to the north end of Downtown, the Save On Foods Memorial Arena, and the Downtown core itself are likewise an easy walk from the subject property. The location also scores well for transit service, with multiple routes available on Bay Street, Quadra Street and Blanshard Avenue.
