Walk north onto Ossington for independent shops and vintage

The doors, not the map, set the order.

Turn north onto Ossington Avenue, where 13 shops run up to Dundas Street West. Lost & Found sits at 12 Ossington Avenue with menswear and shoes, open 12:00 to 18:00 seven days.

Annie Aime at 42 Ossington Avenue has traded since 2013. Browse designer resale at I Miss You Vintage at 63 Ossington Avenue, while Seagrave's at 63-E Ossington Avenue offers luxury consignment open until 18:00.

Near Dundas, Boketto at 174 Ossington Avenue stocks vintage and archive pieces until 19:00, while LoversLand at 215 Ossington Avenue covers bridal and womenswear. Kotn stands at 148 Ossington Avenue at Dundas, as mapped in the Ossington shopping guide.

Transit connections and closing hours to check before you go

The 501 Queen streetcar diverts onto Richmond Street and Adelaide Street between Bay Street and Victoria Street for Ontario Line construction until 2027. That diversion sits east of the shopping, so the streetcar runs normally across the 3 km strip.

Arrive in Yorkville at noon because Utopia and WDLT117 do not open before 12:00. Check consignment return policies at Mine & Yours and Seagrave's before buying.

To leave Ossington, catch the 505 Dundas streetcar roughly 290 m north or the 501 Queen streetcar south. If detouring to Exile Vintage at 60 Kensington Avenue, note Queen's Park station on Line 1 sits 1.14 km away.
