Humewood–Cedarvale is an area of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, consisting of Humewood in the south, divided by Vaughan Road and Cedarvale Ravine. The neighbourhood is bordered by Bathurst Street on the east, Eglinton Avenue to the north, Arlington Avenue to the west, and St. Clair Avenue to the south. Humewood has also been known as "the Woods" because of its many streets that have names ending with "-wood",[1] including Wychwood, Humewood, Cherrywood, Valewood, Maplewood, Wellwood, Kenwood, and Pinewood. The neighbourhood's main commercial areas are along St. Clair Ave. W., referred to as Hillcrest Village and along Eglinton Ave. W..
Character
[edit]
Humewood is a lower- to upper-middle class, family-oriented neighbourhood, with a combination of single-family homes dating from the 1920s as well as a numerous mid-rise and high-rise buildings. Humewood Park, just north of St. Clair Ave. W, was once part of the estate of William Hume Blake, the namesake of the Humewood neighbourhood. Cedarvale is a lower middle class to wealthy family-oriented community and includes modest single family homes from the 1940s as well as some multimillion-dollar homes facing the ravine that is within the Cedarvale Park and Castle Frank Brook's ravine system.
Cedarvale and Humewood are separated by Vaughan Road, and about a block further east is Cedarvale Ravine, a natural border between the two halves of the community.
