Cabbagetown (South)-St. Jamestown
Contains the traditional neighbourhoods of:
Cabbagetown, St. Jamestown
At one time, Cabbagetown was a dilapidated slum that housed Irish immigrants who started settling in 1840s. Still, it’s hard to imagine that these covetable Victorians were ever rundown, or that the leafy English gardens decorating front yards were once rows of vegetables. Especially since a “cottage” on Amelia Street can run you $400,000; most of the detached homes in the eastern part of the neighbourhood go for around $700,000, with plenty in the $1 million zone. The main Parliament Street strip is shared with the lower-income neighbourhoods of St. Jamestown and Regent Park, so there aren’t as many cheese shops or accessory boutiques as the denizens of Cabbagetown might prefer. But that’s more than balanced out by the nabe’s many amenities: Riverdale Park, Yorkville within walking distance, TTC access, and the DVP just minutes away.
