Lincoln Heights (also known as Lincoln Heights - Parkway) is a neighbourhood in the

Canada 2016 Census, the population of the neighbourhood is 1,630.[3] The greater Lincoln Heights area can be defined as extending as far west as Greenview Avenue and as far south as Carling Avenue,[4]
which overlaps with neighbouring Britannia Village.

The area is notable for its proximity to the

Lincoln Fields Shopping Centre
was the main commercial centre before closing in 2019.

Construction plans for the neighbourhood were announced in 1958 by Assaly Construction Limited, with plans for a $20,000,000 "luxury sub-division" on the site of the Magee farm.[5] The neighbourhood began to be built c. 1960 on Regina Street.[6][7] Following the removal of the Canadian Pacific Railway line (where today's Plover Lane is), the neighbourhood expanded further north in the early 1970s with the construction of Lincoln Heights Road.[8][9]

There are many high-rise condominiums and apartments in the neighbourhood.

The Old Forge Community Resource Centre, which is located in a historic building, is a key community centre.

Carlingwood Shopping Centre is just east of Lincoln Fields at the corner of Carling and Woodroffe Avenue
.
