Vincent
The Suburb of Vincent was named after Amelius Vincent, town councillor and Mayor of East London. The area that is known as Vincent first came under settler development in 1857, with the arrival in East London of the British-German Legion.
Vincent is known for its peaceful and tranquil atmosphere and is surrounded with magnificent looking aged trees. Vincent is walking distance to the well known Hudson Park High school and Hudson Park Primary schools. The suburb is sought after due to its proximity to schools and amenities. As East London has expanded some parts of Vincent have been transformed into business precincts but the municipality has curbed this trend due to fears that the road network cannot support further commercial development. The net result is that you have areas that have high concentrations of residents and others where there are numerous small businesses. Its an eclectic mix that works well. It is truly a suburb that has transformed into a place where you can work and play.
The Vincent Park shopping centre is probably the epicentre of business within this suburb which has many restaurants such as Ocean Basket, Mugg & Bean and Cafe Avanti. Offices, bed and breakfasts, banks, butchery's and hairdressers are also in close proximity. There are a number of specialist boutique shops selling a wide variety of goods and services. Coffee shops abound and it really is a great place to shop and explore.
