Toronto/Yonge Street Attractions & Activities - The Best Holiday Destinations for 2020
Yonge Street is one of the oldest streets in Toronto, but few of its current buildings date back to much before 1900. It is generally considered to be Toronto's main street and claims to the longest main street in the world, running from the shore of lake Ontario in the Harbourfront neighbourhood to Lake Simcoe, a total distance of 1,896 km (1,178 mi). While the street runs straight through many of Toronto's neighbourhood, this article deals with the section of the street between Front Street and Bloor Street, for more information on the neighbourhoods to the north of Bloor, see North Toronto. The section of Yonge between Front and Queen Street is typified by large office biuldings, most of them built in the 1970s or later, but with several beautiful exceptions. The area between Queen and Dundas Street is dominated by the 1970s Eaton Centre shopping mall. The section between Dundas and Bloor contains smaller office buildings, several large hotels and mainly tourist-oriented shops and restaurants.
