Toronto is built on the former lake bed of Lake Iroquois This large flat expanse presents few natural limits to growth and throughout its history Toronto has sprawled outward and today has a ring of suburbs that spans hundreds of square kilometres in 2005 the provincial government has attempted to place an artificial limit to this growth in the form of a Greenbelt around the city Toronto was planned out on a grid system of concession lines spaced about two kilometres apart that separated rural landholdings Major avenues were established along each concession line as the city spread outward These avenues run straight with few diversions for long stretches and Toronto is notable for the considerable length of its major streets Most of the avenues go from one side of the city to the other and often continue deep into the neighbouring suburbs Suburban expansion replaced these rural lots with subdivisions made of crescents and cul-de-sacs These local road networks were designed to reduce and slow traffic redirecting vehicles to the avenues These wide avenues that even run through the central city have also made it easier for Toronto to retain a streetcar system which was among the few North American cities to do so The most important obstacle to construction is Toronto's network of ravines Historically city planners filled in many of the ravines and when this was not possible planners mostly ignored them though today the remaining ones are embraced for their natural beauty Ravines have helped isolate some central neighbourhoods from the rest of the city and have contributed to the exclusivity of certain neighbourhoods such as Rosedale Opened in 1889 the Don Valley Brick Works was one of several local brickworks the abundance of clay in the area made brick a commonly used material for construction Building materials, 1.2.4 Characteristics of Schooling in the Toronto Public School Board, Toronto Ontario Canada Business directory Year Pop Baptists 16,411. Sandwich (now Windsor) Toronto was originally a term that referred to a indeterminate geographical location having been used on maps dating to the late 17th and early 18th century to refer to the approximate area that includes the present City of Toronto As the name was used to refer to the approximate area several historic settlements adjacent to the City of Toronto have also carried the name Toronto including Toronto Township and Toronto Gore Eventually the name was anchored to the mouth of the Humber River which is where the present City of Toronto is situated the bay serves as the end of the Toronto Carrying-Place Trail portage route from Georgian Bay There are several explanations for the source and meaning of the name "Toronto" One claim is that the origin is the Seneca word Giyando meaning "on the other side" which was the place where the Humber River narrows at the foot of the pass to the village of Teiaiagon Another is that the term is from the Mohawk word tkaronto meaning "where there are trees standing in the water" which originally referred to the Narrows near present-day Orillia where Hurons and other groups drove stakes into the water to create fish weirs French maps from the 1680s to 1760s identify present-day Lake Simcoe as Lac de Taronto the spelling changed to Toronto during the 18th century and the term gradually came to refer to a large region that included the location of the present-day city of Toronto As the portage route grew in use the name became more widely used and was eventually attached to a French trading fort just inland from Lake Ontario on the Humber Confusion over the origin of the name can be attributed to the succession of First Nations peoples who lived in the area including the Neutral Seneca Mohawk Cayuga and Wendat nations From August 1793 to March 1834 the settlement was known as York sharing the same name as the county it was situated in the settlement was renamed when Lieutenant Governor John Graves Simcoe called for the town to be named after the Prince Frederick Duke of York and Albany to differentiate from York in England and New York City the town was known as "Little York" in 1804 settler Angus MacDonald petitioned the Parliament of Upper Canada to restore the original name of the area but this was rejected the town changed its name back to Toronto when it was incorporated into a city Early history, MLS Coach of the Year!
