- **Event Description**: Join us for the free-to-attend New Toronto Historical Tour.About this EventAbout New Toronto: "The story of New Toronto begins in the late 1800s when, with the expansion of the Grand Trunk Railway and the emergence of industrial opportunities, the area witnessed a surge in development. In 1906, the Toronto Industrial Exhibition, also known as the CNE, prompted the creation of a new subdivision (New Toronto) to accommodate the influx of workers and residents. The 1920s brought a period of prosperity and growth to New Toronto. The burgeoning industries and the completion of the Lakeshore Road Bridge connected the community to the rest of the city. This era saw the construction of charming homes that still line the streets today, showcasing a mix of architectural styles from Colonial Revival to Arts and Crafts. The allure of Lake Ontario has always been a defining feature of New Toronto. In the early 20th century, the community became a popular lakeside retreat for Torontonians seeking respite from the urban hustle. The Lakeshore Yacht Club, founded in 1907, has been a hub for sailing enthusiasts and a symbol of the neighbourhood’s connection to the water."
