And most people wouldn't even really consider this the "east end". This is downtown for most.
I've seen some media outlets referring to northeast Scarborough as "east-end" Toronto. Closer to Pickering than Toronto ...Depends on where the person speaking is from..

Heck, last week West Mall was west-end Toronto - http://toronto.ctvnews.ca/nothing-c...arch-for-clues-in-nicole-morin-case-1.2046843Hah. Someone just called Royal York and Dundas "West End"
My East End is Durham; West End is Halton-Hamilton. You have to think globally and act locally...or whatever. (North of the 401 isn't a real place)
As per the OP, I find that the areas of Toronto that gentrified the earliest became the go-to places. So, the question would be, why did they gentrify earlier?
Wow. That's at least a 15 min drive with no traffic. Amalgamation has definitely changed the city.Heck, last week West Mall was west-end Toronto - http://toronto.ctvnews.ca/nothing-c...arch-for-clues-in-nicole-morin-case-1.2046843

I live in east end Toronto. I'm far enough from Scarborough that I wouldn't walk that far west, unless I really wanted some exercise.
