Around Cabbagetown
The Cabbagetown historic district, commonly referred to as Cabbagetown District, was home to one of the first textile mills in the region. While the much of the district has been renovated, many of the original cottages have been preserved and updated, and the mill itself has been turned into residential lofts. Cabbagetown Park is located on the central-east side of the neighborhood, and the western portion of the neighborhood is bordered by Oakland Cemetery. Cabbagetown is relatively small and walkable, giving residents easy access to amenities around the community.
