If you’re looking for that “village” feel, without losing any of the amenities in the downtown core very few neighbourhoods offer this historic yet quaint downtown escape. With blocks of virtually unbroken Victorian streetscapes lined with waist high black iron fences are two heritage cemeteries, the Riverdale Farm (a working farm in downtown Toronto!), Wellesley Park, and Riverdale Park with baseball diamonds and fabulous toboggan hill!
Cabbagetown is one of Toronto’s most popular neighbourhoods. Residents of mixed cultures, ages and orientations share a strong sense of community and pride in where they live giving it a rare village vibe.
Artistically preserved 19th Century workers cottages nestle beside historic grand dames all within walking distance to Bloor / Yonge / Church Streets and the Danforth.
The charm of Riverdale Farm (particularly on Tuesday market day) in the summer with families at the splash pool and Riverdale East baseball diamonds in full swing is pure inner-city magic.
Head over to Cabbagetown weeks before Halloween, Christmas, Pride, or St. Patrick's Day and marvel at the enthusiastic celebrations on display.
The awe-inspiring wonder of a this preserved Victorian era neighbourhood with Bay and Gable, Second Empire, Neo Gothic and Worker Cottage architecture took its name from immigrants who grew Cabbages on their front lawns, now Cabbagetown is renowned for its beautiful artistic gardens.
