Yorkville, Luxury shopping district in Midtown Toronto, Canada

The Yorkville neighborhood features designer boutiques, high-end restaurants, and art galleries along its tree-lined streets between Bloor Street and Davenport Road.

Originally established in 1830 by Joseph Bloore and William Botsford Jarvis as a residential suburb, Yorkville became part of Toronto through annexation in 1883.

During the 1960s, this district functioned as a central gathering place for musicians, with performers like Joni Mitchell and Neil Young frequenting its venues.

The district connects to two subway stations, Bay and Yonge-Bloor, offering direct access to shopping areas and the Royal Ontario Museum.

The Village of Yorkville Park incorporates geological elements from the Canadian Shield, displaying massive rock formations transported from Northern Ontario.
