Eglinton West

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the Toronto neighbourhood. For the TTC subway station, see Eglinton West (TTC).

Eglinton West, also known as Little Jamaica, is a retail section of Toronto, Canada situated along Eglinton Avenue West from Caledonia Road to Keele Street. It is located in the former borough of York.

There are a large number of Jamaican businesses along this strip. There are also businesses of other communities from the Caribbean. Surrounding communities such as Oakwood - Vaughan are culturally diverse and contain a large Jamaican population.

The businesses along Eglinton Avenue West are frequented by many in the Greater Toronto Area's 200,000-plus Jamaican community.

This area is part of the York-Eglinton Business Improvement Area which stretches from Marlee Avenue in the east, to Chamberlain Avenue in the West (just west of Dufferin Street).
