It's probably just atmosphere.

Georgestown was the first suburb of St. John's, in the 1800s. It never had a separate mayor and council, but it has always been distinct from the rest of St. John's and still is today. That reputation has changed over time, today it's hipster/vegan/artsy. But it's always been a distinct neighbourhood with proud residents. Everything in there is named Georgestown X (Bakery, Pub, Cafe etc.).

Meanwhile, Wedgewood Park was a separate town, one of the many separate towns in the East End that St. John's engulfed. It had its own separate mayor and council in living memory. I couldn't even tell you where the borders are, really. It's so completely absorbed into the general East End of St. John's, and save a few elderly stragglers I'm quite certain it has no separate identity from the rest of the area.

On paper, the opposite should be the case.
