About Caroline Co-op:

Caroline Co-op is located in downtown Toronto, south of the Esplanade, east of Sherbourne, west of Parliament and north of the CNR tracks (north of Lakeshore Blvd). The Co-op has been occupied since the 1980’s. The Co-op consists of sixty units, comprised of stacked apartments and townhomes located on Hahn Place and Longboat Avenue. There are 18 - one-bedroom units, 24 - two bedroom units and 18 - three bedroom units. The units on Hahn Place are three bedroom townhomes with a one bedroom unit above and Longboat Avenue is a combination of all units. There are no wheelchair accessible units.

Like all Co-op’s, there is no landlord; the people (members) who live here run the Co-op through a democratically elected Board of Directors, Committees of Volunteers and Meetings of the membership. Since members are responsible for the running of the Co-op, all members are required to volunteer few hours of work each month. The volunteer work may take the form of service on the Board, a Committee or work on the grounds, etc. All members are obligated to attend regular Member’s meetings, usually held four times a year. Advantages of Co-op living are housing charges (rent) may be below market rates, excellent maintenance, long-term residence, security and a strong community.
