TORONTO ON

Character[ edit ] The neighbourhood has had a mixed-density design for some age, but this is rapidly changing en route for a greater density with the assembly of residential condominium buildings in the area. The Belt Line Railway was a short-lived commuter route in the s. Both are connected to Eglinton subway station. It was subsequently purchased by Canadian National Railway and old for freight until service was discontinued in the s. Mount Pleasant Burial ground serves as a major green area for the southern end of the neighbourhood. Additional condo developments have begun on Mount Pleasant Road, and the existing medium-rise dwellings southeast of Yonge and Eglinton have been joined as a result of developer Minto's Quantum towers of 37 and 54 stories. Origins[ edit ] Toronto's Yonge Street streetcar line was then extended through North Toronto, replacing the Metropolitan linethe former radial railway service. More recently, condo buildings allow further added to this density, above all south of Merton Street backing against historic Mount Pleasant Cemetery. On the north side of the cemetery is the Beltline Traila heavily used ambler and cycling path on the course of a former railway line.

Character[ edit ] The neighbourhood has had a mixed-density design for some age, but this is rapidly changing en route for a greater density with the assembly of residential condominium buildings in the area. The southern part of the neighbourhood is densely populated, with the entire section between Yonge Street after that Mount Pleasant Road south of Davisville Avenue built up with high advance apartment buildings. South of the burial ground are trails in two ravines of the former Mud Creek and Ashen Creek, which lead to the Academic River. These offer an array of shopping and dining aimed primarily by the local market, and as along with many main streets in Toronto neighbourhoods, are largely given to small, close by owned shops in free-standing buildings. It has more recently also become equal with Midtown. Today North Toronto is a relatively affluent community, and actual popular with young families. More a moment ago, condo buildings have further added en route for this density, especially south of Merton Street backing onto historic Mount Affable Cemetery.
