Neighbourhood
DOWNTOWN
Established as early as Orangeville itself, the Downtown neighbourhood is arguably one of the most desired locations to live. Victorian homes, tall trees, and large lots characterize this neighbourhood, located right in the heart of Orangeville. Development began in the 1800's, and focused on Broadway and the immediately surrounding streets. Names of many of the original owners have achieved local celebrity status, such as Ketchum, Morrow, Riddell, McKitrick, Foley and Faulkner.
