The lay of the land

Corktown is among Hamilton's oldest neighbourhoods, founded by Irish settlers. Today it's known for the Augusta Street pubs, Shamrock and Corktown parks, and the Hamilton GO Centre on the former TH&B railway lands.

Tucked against the escarpment, the Stinson section adds a pocket of character homes with a quieter, historic feel.
