Disappointed to hear that a good basics will replace the Metro which was promised before I bought my unit in the neighbourhood

Davenport village is going through a massive transformation and the cost of buying is costly. The area has attracted diverse clients established businesses / young affluent families and young professionals, who are demanding for a quality grocer to be the anchor of the community. This news’ a disappointment, especially when there are several discounted grocers within short distance from each other. Metro should re-consider and become the leader within this fast growing neighbourhood in providing quality products and services, as promised.

PLEASE bring a Metro into this location. The community will support!

I have lived in this area my entire life. The metro was an exciting new addition to the, now, very popular Dupont neighbourhood. All of the condos in the building were sold, and all of the occupants were under the impression a metro was opening up. The condos were bought with this perception, and to change the developement now is unreasonable and frankly discreditable to the development company.

I work in this area and there's not a lot of places to grab lunch. I was grateful that a Metro would be coming because they offer hot meals. This news is very disappointing.

Food Basics is a surefire way to drive the value of the condo units down.

Honestly guys, let's not be Basic.... Metro is where it's at! Sometimes a girl's gotta get her non-busted organic produce on, you feel me?

We moved here with the promise of a 24 hour metro opening. I have terminal cancer and this was supposed to help us tremendously

This is false advertising at its finest. Shame on everyone involved.

You wannabe Yorkville douchebags moved in to a working class neighborhood! Why do you think your condo was a lot cheaper than anywhere else in the city? Across the street there is subsidized housing at 1011 Lansdowne Ave and a Coffee Time, north of that is a Uranium plant and south of Dupont on the east side is a halfway house. You're all ridiculous and I hope you get harassed by your crackhead neighbours when walking home.

Realestate has been sold on the promise of the convenience of a 24hr Metro. Anyone who bought a place in this neighbourhood based on that broken promise should consider a class action suit.

People deserve good quality store they were promised. Otherwise there are better locations to buy property in Toronto.

There's already a Fresh Co in the area. Residents deserve a better choice.
