About Our Neighbourhood
Davisville is a major commercial and residential community in midtown Toronto. The boundaries are Mt. Pleasant Cemetary to the south, Eglinton Avenue to the north, Yonge Street to the west and Bayview Avenue to the east.
Davisville is an attractive area to live for many Torontonians. There are many high-rise apartment buildings and condominiums in the area, especially east of Mt. Pleasant Road, which bisects the community. To the west of Mt. Pleasant Road there are more single-family dwellings, which are predominantly middle-class. There are several office towers located in the area, focused at the intersection of Yonge and Eglinton, a major neighbourhood in its own right. There are also many smaller businesses in the area, mostly clustered along Yonge Street and Eglinton Avenue.
