Weston


Weston is one of the many small rural towns that surrounded Toronto that were eventually consumed by the city as it grew. Today it's part of  continuous Toronto and Weston's main street, Weston Road, still retains that small Ontario town feeling as it stretches high above the Humber River valley. Weston is one of Toronto's neighbourhoods to watch. With a good stock of housing at affordable prices and a mix of condominium and apartment towers, industrial spaces ready to be renovated and easy access to downtown via the Go Train station, Weston is poised to once again become an economic and creative centre.
