Some businesses owners and customers are referring to London Ont.'s Argyle neighbourhood as the city's "Little India." Surrounding Fanshawe College, the east London community has become a one-stop shop for new immigrant families, along with international students.
Hyde Park, too, has a high ratio of immigrant groups, and some have started calling Argyle 'Little India,' said Leah Thomas of the Argyle BIA. "We take a lot from the Fanshawe College population, which has seen a rise in Indian students, and we've seen that reflected in the businesses that have opened in our areas," Thomas said. "Argyle is such a homegrown community, and everybody in the area loves to support people who are living in and next to each other."
The term ‘Indian’ encompasses a wider-ranged area than the specific politically-bound region of recent history, and includes those of that particular ethnic and geographic background bound in by the Indian Ocean, Himalayan Mountain Range, and western deserts, excepting of those of Arab descent... Little India arose in Jackson Heights, which developed into a prominent commercial area for South Asian goods... The population of the area has included Indians, Pakistanis, and Bengali, among other South Asian groups.
South Asian culture abounds in this vibrant neighbourhood, where hole-in-the-wall “chaat houses” (serving traditional Indian street food) co-exist with trendy new brewpubs and art galleries. The jewel-in-crown of the area is the Gerrard India Bazaar, the biggest South Asian market in North America, packed with jewellery, furnishings, spices and silks.
The Naaz Theatre was the jumping off point for that community that blossomed around this landmark in the decades that followed. It eventually became a huge draw to the area for Indo-Canadians, and businesses catering to the South Asian community began popping up in proximity to the theatre.
The reference to India is owed to the abundance of South Asians occupying the district... It was in the 1950s that South Asians began to migrate to this area, mostly for job opportunities.
