Yonge Street

Yonge Street is a long Toronto corridor that changes from downtown retail and office blocks to neighbourhood shopping, restaurants and local streets farther north.

Yonge Street

Why go

Yonge Street is valuable because its character shifts as you move north. Downtown brings the Eaton Centre and the financial core; Bloor connects to Yorkville and its higher-end streets; farther north, the corridor feels more local and less concentrated. Choose one section for a realistic walk, or use the subway to compare districts without forcing the entire length into one day.

What to look for

  • Start near Queen or Dundas for the densest pedestrian activity.
  • Notice the contrast between storefronts, towers and older street fabric.

Useful to know

  • Choose a section rather than attempting the entire street on foot.
