Yorkville is well known for its shopping. It is roughly bounded by Bloor Street to the south, Davenport Road to the north, Yonge Street to the east and Avenue Road to the west. Yorkville is considered one of Canada's most exclusive shopping streets.
Founded in 1830 by entrepreneur Joseph Bloor, the Village of Yorkville was at first a residential suburb. Its Victorian-style homes, quiet residential streets, and picturesque gardens survived into the 20th century, when it was annexed by the City of Toronto. Yorkville Real Estate was not always so high-priced. In the 1960's Yorkville was the centre of bohemian culture in Toronto and was hang-out for artists and musicians of the time as well as many literary figures. Once the Bloor-Danforth subway system was built the value of Yorkville real estate began to climb. This facilitated the building of more high rise office buildings and attracted stores such as Holt Renfrew. Yorkville is also home to some of Toronto's most expensive condominium most starting at over one million dollars and going well beyond.
