Everything about Walkerville Ontario totally explained
Walkerville,
Ontario,
Canada is an area of
Windsor, Ontario,
Canada, that was founded and developed by
Hiram Walker, maker of
Canadian Club Whisky. The town surrounding the
distillery was started in
1856 and many original buildings and homes still exist as they grew around the first distillery of
1858. The town was incorporated in
1890, and was amalgamated with
Windsor in
1935.
Walkerville is comprised of two sections: Olde Walkerville, based on the
Garden city movement and South Walkerville – the newer district that was developed in the
1910s and
1920s. Walkerville extends south from the
Detroit River and is home to much of Windsor's most walkable communities. The Windsor City Market, Ottawa Street and Walkerville's Wyandotte Street section are well travelled spaces, and Walkerville continues to be a high demand area for people seeking to live in well-established, purpose-mixed neighbourhoods.
Hiram Walker championed a diversified economy and Walkerville saw the birth of many industries including the automotive industry (
Ford Motor Company of Canada) in 1904.
