It was the first area that settlers established way back when in the 1800s, prior to CP coming through.
Today, the road we're on (9th Ave SE) is becoming an up and coming trendy restaurant, coffee shop and shops in general area. Quite a nice vibe.
And it's about 10 min walk to the riverfront park where you can get on a path and walk all the way downtown or about 30 min to the edge of downtown. Within an hour you're in the heart of the downtown area.
