Combining many outdoor angles, Islington Village is a project that I am very interested in. Known as "Toronto's Village of Murals" Islington Village is located in the heart of Etobicoke. This residential neighborhood boasts 25 mural "masterpieces", enhancing the walls of over 15,000 square feet that span five blocks of the historic shopping district on Dundas West. Painted by artist extraordinaire, John Kuna, the murals depict a cohesive history of the neighbourhood. A labor of love this project started over nine years ago and is still expanding.
Islington Village was originally called Mimico when it was founded in 1814. This place on Dundas Street West between Montgomery Road and Kipling Avenue has an upscale tone with a small town feel. Stores here include a gourmet food shop, a deli, two drug stores, a hardware store, several flower shops, coffee houses and over 30 pubs, restaurants and cafes. The area known for its art and history is home to Arts Etobicoke, Creative Village, The Music Studio and Montgomery's Inn.
The Village of Islington is a fantastic place to live, work, and visit. If you have a chance just come to thi place and enjoy. Thank you for watching this video!
