How Toronto streets got their names?
Some are named for landmark houses in the area or the hometowns whence settlers came. John Street, Simcoe Street and Graves Street were all named for the founder of York (that's John Graves Simcoe). Bathurst Street, once a lane connecting a farm to the then-town of York, was named for an earl who never visited Canada.What is the history of street names?
Local People: Often roads are named after the families who lived there. The names of colonial families are the most likely to be represented by street names. Examples are Mead, Hoyt, Winthrop, and Lockwood. Theses streets usually, but not always, run through property once owned by these families.What is the oldest street in Toronto?
Yonge Street
As we look deep into the past, we can find out that the oldest Toronto street is Yonge St. One of the famous historians, Stephen Otto, believes that Yonge was established by Queen's Rangers under John Graves Simcoe's direction in 1794.- The first section opened in 1796 and was named after Sir George Yonge, the British secretary of war.
