Overview: Leaside-Bennington, located roughly 35 minutes from Toronto’s harbour, is a gem nestled in the heart of the city. Originally a tract of farmland in the 19th century, Leaside bears its name from the Lea family, early settlers of the region.
It flourished as part of the Garden City movement, boasting a harmonious blend of stunning homes, unique architecture, and winding streets, reminiscent of its rich history. The neighbourhood extends near the scenic Don River, revealing breathtaking ravine landscapes. As you stroll through, you’ll find traces of its industrious past juxtaposed against the serenity of its vast green spaces. These spaces transport wanderers to a tranquil realm, seemingly distant from the city’s bustle.
At its core, Leaside is characterized by its warm community vibe, walkable streets, bike-friendly paths, and an abundance of recreational areas. From schools to commercial plazas, the neighbourhood is brimming with activity, supporting local businesses and catering to its younger inhabitants. Historically, Leaside has witnessed significant transformations. Incorporated as a town in 1913, it later amalgamated with East York in 1967, eventually becoming a part of Toronto in 1998. Today, it stands as one of Toronto’s most sought-after and affluent areas.
The future of Leaside-Bennington looks even more promising. With the anticipated arrival of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT’s three stations, including the Leaside Station on Bayview and Eglinton and the Laird Station on Laird and Eglinton, it’s set to become an even more vibrant hotspot. Whether it’s the allure of Bayview Avenue’s local businesses, the charm of Eglinton Avenue East, or the buzz on Laird Drive, there’s always something to discover. Now is an exciting time for residents and tourists alike to experience the treasures that make Leaside-Bennington truly special. Stay curious, Toronto.
