Brockton Village is a quiet neighbourhood in west downtown Toronto. Historical street signs along Dundas Street mark the entrance to the commercial centre of the neighbourhood.
The majority of Brockton Village houses were built between 1880 and 1920. There are many types of homes here, but the most common is the Victorian semi-detached, or row house.
Many of the houses feature a front porch with pillars and steps with wrought iron railings that lead to beautifully maintained gardens.
The houses are fairly narrow as are the lots and parking is accessed from laneways at the rear of the properties.
Brockton Village's main shopping districts are on Dundas Street West and on College Street. These two shopping areas contain many Portuguese food shops and restaurants, which cater to the large Portuguese community in this neighbourhood.
The Bloordale Village shopping district along Bloor Street has a wide range of shops and restaurants and the merchants here frequently sponsor special events for the local community.
The Dufferin Mall, south of Bloor Street, includes large chain department stores and over 100 retail outlets. |
