The Junction is a formerly down-at-heel neighbourhood located in the city's west end along Dundas Street west. It gets its name from the junction of the CN and CP railway lines at the east end of the neighbourhood, and the presence that the railway and freight trains have in the area. The area is gentrifying pretty quickly and is home to numerous antique furniture stores. In 2003, or so, the neighbourhood received a facelift when archaic hydro wires were buried and replaced with elegant, black lacquered streetlamps.
