A blend of suburban charm and urban convenience
Marieville, the neighborhood Parkview calls home, offers a mix of suburban tranquility and urban accessibility. This area, settled in the late 19th century by French-Canadian and Italian industrial workers, has evolved into a predominantly residential community with a strong sense of local identity.
The neighborhood's character is defined by its mix of multi-family homes, condos, and single-family cottages, interspersed with small, family-owned businesses that give the area a close-knit feel. Residents can experience this community spirit at local establishments like Il Forno and Borrelli's Bakery, where picking up a box of Zeppoles on St. Joseph's Day might lead to a chance encounter with a neighbor.
