Bayview Woods-Steeles Real Estate
Located at the northern end of Toronto, Bayview Woods- Steels is a unique neighbourhood that is known for its scenic beauty. It was part of North York until the year 1998 at which point it was amalgamated into Toronto. The most distinctive aspect of this neighbourhood is that it has a series of ravines that run right through it, dividing it into segments. Many do not even think of Bayview Woods- Steeles as a complete neighbourhood of its own. Instead, choosing to divide the segments thus created among the neighbouring locations of Hillcrest Village, Newtonbrook and Bayview Village.
