Border City Living

Retail & Boutique

Bibilioasis Bookshop

Thanks to certain places, neighbourhoods and businesses, we get the opportunity to be reminded of the true nature of this city, its history and the efforts that have gone into making it what it is today. Biblioasis, the area’s preferred indie bookstore, is one of those places that gives us all the feels.  The shop has been in the book biz since the late ’90’s and carries a curated selection of local and international, new, used and rare books – some of which are printed by sister business, Bibilioasis Literary Press. The bookshop sits at the corner of Wyandotte and Gladstone  Smudge Metaphysical Boutique, NOLA’s and the infamous Old Walkerville Theatre.  

Since their 2012 opening in Walkerville, they have been known for stocking a carefully curated selection of books including poetry, children’s stories and cookbooks – they also stock vintage gems like the treasured 1937 edition of ‘The Hobbit‘. Those curious about local stories will enjoy browsing recipes from some of the city’s most-loved restaurants or tales from lawyer, Patrick Brode who delves into a murder during the prohibition era and local historical books about urban transformation from the booming auto industry that once paved the way for Windsor.  And for those who aren’t sure what they’re into, we suggest wondering in on a quiet afternoon to browse… but make sure you have a bit of extra time because you could be here a while!

Conveniently, if you know exactly what you’re looking for and they don’t happen to stock it, Bibilioasis can order it right in for you – you’ll have it in your hands within a day or so. Which is pretty neat for an indie bookshop and services like these prove that they’re fair competition for the big-box book stores.

They also host community events with a selection of readings, shopping nights, book clubs, and ghost story parties for kids. The next time you’re out for a coffee at Anchor, stroll around the corner and pop in at Biblioasis and tell them we sent you!

Freya is one of our favourite spots in Detroit and it is also featured in the latest issue of the BCL magazine ~ Who else has been? 🙋🏼‍♀️

We cook, you eat. A food menu? How old-fashioned. At Freya, a multi-course meal, consisting of several small plates is paired meticulously with a corresponding beverage. The only important decision you'll make is what to have from the 'music menu' passed from guest to guest throughout the evening🎶

Perfect for the, "I don't know what I feel like tonight, you choose", person in your life-- as long as you're into Moodyman.

~What does 'supporting small business' mean to us?~

Helping hardworking visionaries to achieve their dreams is what we do at BCL. So we're unbelievably grateful that many of our favourite small business owners have become our real estate clients.

Amor and Mauricio, owners of Walkerville's Café Amor on Ottawa St., are just the kind of people we love to work with. They do everything it takes to make their dreams a reality — and they always do it with a smile 🤗. Fantastic coffee, a colourful atmosphere and excellent service; it's no wonder they were busting at the seams and needed an upgrade.
 
To secure their new location, we helped them navigate the process of selling properties, and purchasing off-market with non-traditional financing, construction and permitting. 

Their grit, perseverance, creativity and positive attitudes helped them keep their eyes on the prize throughout the entire process. As a result, we couldn't be happier to see them operating in a location double the size to accommodate their growing number of customers.

We’ve been quieter than usual this last quarter of 2022 as we hunkered down to work on something that has changed the direction of our company’s future. Until we’re able to share the news officially in 2023, we’d like to announce that our print magazine, blog and socials will begin to reflect more of our own projects after six years of documenting what’s been happening out there in the Windsor community.

Not to say that we won’t still be sharing our favourite destinations and designs with you, because we definitely still will be. Now, as it happens, many of our favourite, well-designed destinations throughout the county are BCL projects in some way. Connecting people with inspiring properties is what we do best, and we want to keep doing it!

From colourful, creative homes to the city’s best cafés, we’ll be pivoting to share stories with you of homes that BCL has designed as well as homes and properties that our clients have developed and reimagined in an inspiring way. 

We’ll also be documenting more behind-the-scenes of our staging projects, new BCL flips, and insights into how we believe thoughtfully acquired and developed real estate can make Windsor & Essex a more beautiful place for generations to come.

Happy Holidays and cheers to our clients, collaborators, friends and future clients-to-be!

They do everything it takes to make their dreams a reality — and they always do it with a smile 🤗. Fantastic coffee, a colourful atmosphere and excellent service; it's no wonder they were busting at the seams and needed an upgrade.
 
To secure their new location, we helped them navigate the process of selling properties, and purchasing off-market with non-traditional financing, construction and permitting. 

Their grit, perseverance, creativity and positive attitudes helped them keep their eyes on the prize throughout the entire process. As a result, we couldn't be happier to see them operating in a location double the size to accommodate their growing number of customers.

~What does 'supporting small business' mean to us?~

Helping hardworking visionaries to achieve their dreams is what we do at BCL. So we're unbelievably grateful that many of our favourite small business owners have become our real estate clients.

Amor and Mauricio, owners of Walkerville's Café Amor on Ottawa St., are just the kind of people we love to work with. They do everything it takes to make their dreams a reality — and they always do it with a smile 🤗. Fantastic coffee, a colourful atmosphere and excellent service; it's no wonder they were busting at the seams and needed an upgrade.

2/5
We’ve been quieter than usual this last quarter of 2022 as we hunkered down to work on something that has changed the direction of our company’s future. Until we’re able to share the news officially in 2023, we’d like to announce that our print magazine, blog and socials will begin to reflect more of our own projects after six years of documenting what’s been happening out there in the Windsor community.

Not to say that we won’t still be sharing our favourite destinations and designs with you, because we definitely still will be. Now, as it happens, many of our favourite, well-designed destinations throughout the county are BCL projects in some way. Connecting people with inspiring properties is what we do best, and we want to keep doing it!

From colourful, creative homes to the city’s best cafés, we’ll be pivoting to share stories with you of homes that BCL has designed as well as homes and properties that our clients have developed and reimagined in an inspiring way. 

We’ll also be documenting more behind-the-scenes of our staging projects, new BCL flips, and insights into how we believe thoughtfully acquired and developed real estate can make Windsor & Essex a more beautiful place for generations to come.

Happy Holidays and cheers to our clients, collaborators, friends and future clients-to-be!
