Places to Live in Toronto That Are "Soundproof"

Hi,

I lived in Montreal last summer at a place called "La Cite", and the apartments there were basically soundproof--I guess they had nice concrete walls.

Anyway I'm looking for places similar to that in Toronto that are "soundproof". Basically somewhere that I can play music loud and DJ etc. without pissing off neighbours etc. Anyone have any recommendations? Close to downtown or on the Yonge subway line are preferred! And not thousands of dollars either...

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks!

Matt

I am interested in said results as well. Would love to have a dj setup when I move to Toronto and not have to limit volume at 3am if I feel like mixing.

I'm more than likely not moving until the start of July. I also think my friend is renting or buying a house and the plan was to share with him but I may not be into that place at all, so who knows.

Recommendations:

-look for a place above a store - I know that this has worked well for a buddy of mine, as once the store is closed, there can be no noise complaints & rarely would there be an issue even if it's open. There are an abundance of these places on the Bloor line, and I believe there may even be on over a store at Bloor and Emerson (right beside my buddy, so I know they were completely gutted and refinished w/ new appliances not even a year ago).

-also, there's the place I used to live. High Park village, on the Bloor line at High Park Station. Concrete walls thick enough that things were soundproof between even the living room and the bedroom. But again, this is on the Bloor line, so it's your call. That said, it did only ever take me 20 min on the subway to get downtown & this place has an underground parking garage that is secure & well priced if you have a car. Plus free pools & bbq "pit" set up w/ 12 gas bbq's that are free to residents as well.

That's the best I can do as far as info.

Good luck!

With the shoddy contstruction of most buildings around here. Thin walls and wood/drywall my only suggestion in the GTA is a house with a wide lot.

we've been through this!
Deaf people are sensitive to vibrations
so fail. fail faiiilll.

and as for condos/rental buildings.. good luck on that
The one condo I was going to move into the walls were so thin that when we were viewing the apartment we could hear the people next door fighting.. and in the jazz where I am now.. I dont have anyone around me.. but I can hear everything from above.. annoying at times.. but whatever.

I'd go with the store idea
