ThThe Junction

The Junction 

This neighbourhood is so named because it is bounded on three sides by railway lines that enclose the entire neighbourhood in the shape of a triangle.

The residential housing is located in the centre of the neighbourhood, while industry is located on the periphery of the Junction Triangle next to the railway tracks. The Junction Triangle factories have been a traditional source of employment for many neighbourhood residents.

The Junction houses are mostly   two and three-storey Victorian style houses. The brick exterior on many of these houses has been colourfully painted, giving these older homes a bit of a facelift.

Most of the houses in the Junction neighbourhood has been converted into two and three family dwellings both by investors looking for income properties as well as by owner/users looking to off-set their mortgage costs.
