It is hard to believe that Yorkville was actually a former village. In the 1880s the village had a hard time delivering services to its growing population and shortly after it got annexed by the City of Toronto! Today, Yorkville is one of Toronto’s most prestige locations with some of the top condominiums that Toronto has to offer – many start at over one million dollars.
