Markham Centre is a rapidly growing urban district in the City of Markham, set around the Highway 7 and Warden Avenue corridor. Its mix of residential towers, office buildings and public spaces gives the area a denser, newer feel than many surrounding parts of Markham, while the seasons bring hot summers and cold, snowy winters. The district’s central landmark is the curving glass-and-steel Civic Centre, with a public square and landscaped grounds nearby. Dining options range from casual restaurants to cafés, and shops and services are concentrated in mixed-use developments. For outdoor time, residents can visit nearby parks and paved paths; playgrounds and library services are also available in the broader area. The median rent in the Markham Centre neighborhood is $2,600 per month, with a typical range of $950 to $4,500. VIVA buses and York Region Transit connect along Highway 7, while nearby GO rail service and major roads offer additional ways to travel.
