Character
The area is home to mostly large, early 20th century, single-family homes surrounding Hillcrest Park that overlook the city. Many multicultural restaurants and shops are located nearby on St. Clair West to the north, and on Davenport Road/Ossington Avenue to the southwest of the neighbourhood.
Its main commercial shopping area is along St. Clair Avenue. It has several main streets: Bathurst Street, a four-lane arterial road running north–south on the east; St. Clair Avenue, a four-lane arterial road, with streetcar right-of-way, on the north running east–west; and Davenport Road running east–west to the south.
In the eastern section at Bathurst and Davenport is the Wychwood Park enclave. From 1926 to 1967, a part of this area was represented by the Bracondale constituency in the Ontario Legislative Assembly.[1][2]
