Eglinton West
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the Toronto neighbourhood. For the nearby 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 Allen 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.
The businesses along Eglinton Avenue West are frequented by many in the Greater Toronto Area's 150,000-plus Jamaican community.
This area overlaps 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).
