Glen Park is a neighbourhood in Toronto, south of Highway 401 along Dufferin St. One of Glen Park’s first settlers was Sir Sanford Fleming - the father of standard time and the chief engineer of the Ontario, Simcoe and Huron Railway. Fleming’s property was located just south of Lawrence Avenue between Dufferin and Keele Streets. In 1856, Fleming subdivided his farm into the Balmoral subdivision, which was the first planned subdivision in North York. Glen Park’s transition from farmland to residential neighbourhood began in the 1920’s. Its largest period of growth occurred after the second world war, when many returning war veterans and their families settled in Glen Park. Most of the homes in this neighbourhood were built in the 1950-early 1970s. Just north of the neighbourhood is Yorkdale Shopping Centre, which, in addition to being a large shopping mall, houses a GO Transit bus terminal.
