Home: Downtown / Kingsmount / Flour Mill / Dunovan
This area is just north west of Ramsey Lake and clustered in communities around the main railway yards. Flour Mill includes some of Sudbury's earliest French neighbourhoods. Dunovan was originally a melting pot with a mix of eastern Europeans. The area has many turn-of-the-century homes, including many heritage homes and many recently restored
Schools
The maturity of the area ensures many schools are close by in both the public and Catholic school boards. Just to the north, is the francophone College Boreal. To the southeast, on the south shore of Ramsey Lake, but still convenient is Laurentian University. Downtown being the transportation hub for Sudbury
Transit, excellent bus transportation is available for residents of these neighbourhoods to access all post secondary educational institutions
Shopping
The area has a good mix of smaller shops and services, and for larger stores are residents head downtown to the Sudbury City Centre. The larger "box stores" are a short drive away, heading either north east to Lasalle Boulevard or south to Paris & Regent Streets.
Recreation
Smaller city parks, several of which are wintertime homes to community-run outdoor skating rinks, dot the neighbourhoods. The community's location in the centre of Sudbury gives it ready access to Bell Park, Science North, the Sudbury Arena (home of the Sudbury Wolves), Queen's Athletic Field, and the Sudbury Theatre Centre. The private Idylwyld Golf Course is close-by on the south shore of Ramsey Lake.
