This neighborhood has changed dramatically over the years. Originally a Jewish community, it became home to Portuguese and other European immigrants, and then changed again as the bordering Chinatown expanded at the same time shopkeepers from the Caribbean, the Middle East, and elsewhere arrived.

This colorful, lively area should not be missed. You'll hear Caribbean, Portuguese, Italian, and many other languages and dialects as merchants spread out their wares.

There's also lace,... more

Not the best-kept, cleanest area, but there are a variety of quirky shops, vintage stores and markets (where you can get food for super cheap). Take a break at Kensington Coffee. Also, Chinatown is nearby.

The area becomes an open-air market on Saturday – the busiest day of the week. The market originated during British settlement in the 1790s and has since undergone many permutations due to flurries of immigration that brought in folks representing more than 30 cultural... more
