Wanless Park Real Estate Overview

Surrounding communities might be of interest as well:

This tight-knit community in Upper Toronto is located north of Lawrence Avenue, has Teddington Parklands on the east, Glenforest Road on the north and Ronan Avenue to its west. The neighbourhood's beginnings can be traced back to 1912 when the Toronto Suburbs Ltd planned subdivision of the old Waverley farm. At that point, the area was called Waverley Park. Development remained subdued here thanks to, first, the First World War and then the depression.

About two decades later, the centre of this area was taken over by the City of Toronto to create a public park. This park was later named Wanless Park, and the neighbourhood adopted this name in the subsequent years. The name Wanless came from a former Toronto alderman, John Wanless.
