New Toronto sits along Lake Ontario in Toronto’s west end, with a lakeside setting, flat streets and a climate moderated by the water. Colonel Samuel Smith Park offers waterfront paths, open green space, a marina and a skating trail, while nearby parks and playgrounds add places to spend time outdoors. The area’s history is tied to its former identity as an industrial lakeshore community; remnants of that past sit alongside residential streets and newer development. Local dining and coffee options are spread along Lake Shore Boulevard West, with larger shopping and arts destinations available elsewhere in Etobicoke and downtown. The Martin Goodman Trail supports walking and cycling along the waterfront, and streetcar service connects the neighborhood with the broader city. For the New Toronto neighborhood, the median rent is $2,450 per month, with a typical range of $1,325 to $10,500.
