About the Neighbourhood
York Mills is one of Toronto's most affluent neighbourhoods. Its mills are long gone replaced by shining office towers and luxury condominiums. Its main arterial roadways including Yonge Street and Bayview Avenue - which were once impassable by car, now serve as major roadways to and from the city core.
Yet, despite all these changes York Mills has managed to maintain a peaceful tranquility and natural beauty that has helped make it one of Toronto's most desirable neighbourhoods.
York Mills Plaza is conveniently located at the south-west intersection of Bayview Avenue and York Mills Road. This popular outdoor shopping plaza is anchored by a large drug store, and a supermarket. York Mills Plaza also features an international restaurant, a wine shop, small specialty retail stores and a fine selection of gourmet food shops.
The Bayview Village Shopping Centre is located at the north-east corner of Bayview and Sheppard Avenues. This upscale shopping centre caters to the affluent York Mills market with several designer clothing and accessory stores, gift shops, a magazine and book shop, jewellery stores, and an excellent selection of restaurants.
The York Mills Centre located on the north-east corner of Yonge Street and York Mills Road has about a dozen retail shops and professional services in addition to medical offices and a food court.
The multi-faceted York Mills Park, located at the south-east corner of York Mills Road and Bayview Avenue is well used in the summertime for a variety of pursuits. There is an outdoor pool for recreational swimming, a children's playground and a baseball diamond with recreational house leagues. This park also provides access to Windfield's Park which has an attractive footpath through a ravine valley that follows the winding course of Wilkett Creek, a tributary of the Don River.
York Mills Park is also the home of the York Mills Arena. This arena is busy year-round with organized hockey leagues, as well as power and pleasure skating. There are many parks located north of York Mills and west of Bayview Avenue. The largest of these neighbourhood parks is St. Andrew's Park which features a mini valley and lush greenspace that is popular for walks and light recreational pursuits. Tournament Park located next to St. Andrew's Square features tennis courts and an active tennis club program. Golfers are very close to the scenic Don Valley Golf Course located west of Yonge Street and south of Highway 401.
