    YORKVILLE

    Formerly a quiet rural village just outside the City Limits until 1885, Yorkville became noticed as a mecca of Canada’s folk scene and a hippie haven during the 1960s. During the 80‘s and ‘90‘s, Yorkville  underwent large-scale development and became a dynamic urban centre — a destination for haute couture,, glamourous boutiques, gourmet restaurants with well-known chefs and picturesque Victorian homes and lavish hotels. Today,  Yorkville enjoys its reputation as an undisputed shopping hub with it’s unique mix of luxury, wealth, and style while remaining true to it’s roots, with it’s own identity despite being part of a big city.  Working professionals, celebrities, and retirees all make Yorkville their home (mind you, these retirees have done it in style!)  It’s quaint residential streets are populated with, Victorian Mews, vibrant flower baskets, and postcard perfect gardens.
