yorkville, toronto

Yorkville is one of Toronto, Ontario, Canada's most fashionable neighbourhoods. Founded by entrepreneur Joseph Bloor (after whom Bloor Street, one of Toronto's main thoroughfares, is named) in 1830, the Village of Yorkville began as a residential suburb characterized by Victorian-style homes, quiet residential streets, and picturesque gardens. It was later annexed by the City of Toronto. In the 1960s, Yorkville flourished as Toronto's cultural centre, and was considered by some to be the breeding grounds for some of Canada's most noted musical talents, including Joni Mitchell and Neil Young. During the 1960s, Yorkville was known as the Canadian capital of counterculture and the hippie movement. In 1968, nearby Rochdale College at the University of Toronto was opened on Bloor Street as an experiment in counterculture education. Today, Yorkville is one of the city's most affluent districts. Some of the city's most expensive retail stores line its streets.
