About this Neighborhood

Crescent Town grew up around the Victoria Park subway station, a cluster of high-rise complexes connected by a covered walkway to a central quadrangle. That density shows in the amenities: 25 restaurants, 13 grocers and seven parks packed into a transit-anchored footprint, with a strong 4.6 Yelp average across more than 870 reviews. The food leans everyday and satisfying, led by Beach Hill Smokehouse, Gingerman Restaurant and Bistro Camino. Foursquare regulars orbit grocery stores, burger joints, supermarkets, a wine store and coffee shops, the self-contained rhythm of a community that lives close to the train.
