It was bounded by College, Queen, and Yonge Streets and University Avenue, and was centred on the intersection of Terauley (now Bay) and Albert Streets. Population For several decades of the late 19th and early 20th century, it was a highly dense mixed-used neighbourhood where successive waves of new immigrants would initially settle before establishing themselves.

It was the centre of the city's Jewish community from the late 19th century until the 1920s when the Jewish community moved west to Spadina Avenue and Kensingto ...
