HI-RISE enjoys support from many people who like our positive approach. The newspaper is not sponsored by any association or group, it is not part of a chain, and it is not owned by a daily newspaper. Our independence gives us impartiality and freedom to concentrate on our positive goals and on bringing people together. HI-RISE is a truly independent community newspaper.

Every now and then we see "slick", "upscale" condominium publications appear, and usually later disappear. And after many years we still run into a surprising number of people or groups who think that only people who live in houses matter, and so who give us the cold shoulder. Meanwhile, HI-RISE continues to work away, as it has for nineteen years, for the real interests and concerns of all high rise and townhouse (more...)

The newspaper is distributed to selected high rises, townhouses, co-ops, and condominiums in the greater Toronto area;85% door to door. For some areas, like Don Mills and Thorncliffe Park, we are the community newspaper. There are 7 area editions of the newspaper.

Distribution to high rises and condominiums has to be done properly and no more often than monthly. Distribution is done by responsible adults with a professional company, with an excellent reputation --- one more reason we have access to buildings to which no one else has access.
