Neighbourhoods » West Don Lands, Toronto

The West Don Lands are the site of a planned neighbourhood under construction in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The area is bordered by the Don River, King Street, Parliament Street and the rail line adjacent to the Gardiner Expressway.

The region was originally a large city park in the old city of York. It was sold off to private developers in the 1830s to finance the construction of a new city hospital. By the late nineteenth century it was part of the Corktown community which was home to working class Irish immigrants. Most of the land was industrial or owned by the railways, and it became the site of an array of factories and warehouses, including one of the largest pork processing facilities in the world.
