| Yorkville is one of Toronto's most affluent neighbourhoods. 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.
Some of the city's most exclusive retail stores line its streets. Prada, Gucci, Hugo Boss, Chanel, Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Holt Renfrew, Harry Rosen, and many more upscale designer labels can all be found here.
In the early 1960s, Yorkville flourished as Toronto's bohemian, cultural centre, and was also known as the Canadian capital of the hippie movement. In the 80s and the 90s, steady gentrification of Yorkville resulted in its current distinctive mix of high-end retail, including many art galleries, fashion boutiques and antique stores, and popular bars, cafes and eateries along Cumberland Street and Yorkville Avenue.
