Formerly East York, Old East York now encompasses the southern, urban portion of the area. It is separated from Old Toronto by the Don River (west), located between Taylor-Massey Creek on the north, and Victoria Park Avenue in the east. Originally populated by British and Irish decent, it is now home to a much more varied group of ethnicities including Greek, Bangladeshi, and Chinese. Midtown orientated, Old East York is close to some great places in Toronto both in the neighbourhood and surrounding it.
