Nobody from west of Dufferin is going to have a clue what any of this is about.

Well done!

Why would we need to get out more? Everything good is on our side. :p

A nice tribute to the east-end hood and one of my favourite intersections in the city!

Recently transplanted east-ender (Gio Ranna's Really Really Nice Restaurant is just around the corner from my parents' house) ... best of both worlds!

Is Dufferin really the East/West border now? Now I feel pretty awesome for living at Bathurst and getting these!

...altho isn't the Real Jerk on the North side? my fuzzy west-ender brain isn't sure :)

Haha yeah the Real Jerk is on the South-East corner
I would say, and i've had this conversation with other people, that the official East/West division is the DVP bridge, what you think?

uhh, west of everything pretty much and i DO get it.
don't tell me i'm the only west-ender here who actually enjoys exploring every corner of our fair city.

Carlos: Definitely the DVP bridge. Anything else and they're just in denial. Yonge-Dundas is way far from "east."

Isn't Yonge what separates East and West.....?

John Henry: Only if you're from out of town! Official lines are different. Or are you calling St. Michael's Hospital "east end"?

It always comes down to "the river" or the DVP if you will. You know you are making an east-end trip when you cross the valley.

Cabbage Town, Regent Park, Corktown, I'ld say all eastside, I put it at Yonge for sure...
Corina replying to a comment from Carlos / January 7, 2009 at 05:11 pm

Yeah I've always considered the DVP to be the big divider... especially when I used to go to school in Scarberia and work smack downtown; the end of Adelaide signals somethin for sure.

Haha, Yeah i think you are right, those neighbourhoods do feel east end, maybe it doesn't need to be a straight line, maybe it's like bloor-danforth, gerrard-cabbagetown, queen-dvp, front/eastern-corktown

Jilly's is now the worst Toronto strip club, used to be quite good.

Yonge is the dividing line but east is east of the river, west is west of Bathurst (or maybe even Christie). In between is the middle, or "downtown". Places there can be east side or west side but they can't be an end if they're in the centre.

West end provincialism is funny. Queen West ain't what it used to be in the '80s, if it ever was, and there isn't much west of Portland that I don't pass 3 of on the way, except Tibetan restaurants.
