Cabbagetown - South St. James Town

The downtown neighbourhood of Cabbagetown-South St. James Town includes the venerable Cabbagetown community, largely dominated by Victorian homes, and a portion of the high rise-heavy St. James Town community. The neighbourhood is bounded by the Don Valley to the east, Parliament and Jarvis Streets to the west, Gerrard and Carlton streets to the south and Bloor and Wellesley streets to the north. The eastern portion of the neighbourhood consists largely of green space, including Riverdale Park, Wellesley Park and St. James Cemetery. Riverdale Farm is also located in the area. Cabbagetown-South St. James Town includes Sprucecourt Junior Public School, Winchester Junior and Senior Public School, Our Lady of Lourdes School, Rosedale Heights School of the Arts and Jarvis Collegiate Institute. Central Neighbourhood House, Toronto Kiwanis Boys & Girls Clubs, and the Cabbagetown Youth Centre are among the many community organizations calling the area home. Transit-wise, commuters can take the subway to Castle Frank station, a streetcar along Carlton-Gerrard or buses along Jarvis, Parliament and Wellesley streets.
