South Algonquin Township: Highway 60 near Dunnes Road, Looking Down
Etobicoke lies along Lake Ontario’s northwestern shore, where Toronto’s western districts spread across the plain between the Humber River valley and Toronto Pearson Airport. The Highway 401 and Kipling Avenue interchange forms part of a major Greater Toronto transport corridor, serving commuter and freight traffic among warehouses, offices and established residential areas. This former municipality was amalgamated into the City of Toronto in 1998, though its name remains central to the identity of the city’s west end. Etobicoke’s name comes from an Anishinaabe term associated with the place where alders grow, recalling a far older relationship with the local landscape. The Humber River is a Canadian Heritage River, and its valley is one of Toronto’s principal green corridors.
