The Beaches Real Estate
The Beach was first settled by the Ashbridge family who came to
Canada from Philadelphia, in 1793. Ashbridge's Bay Park is named
after these pioneers. The Ashbridges, and a handful of other families,
farmed this district until the latter part of the 1800's, when many
of The Beach properties were subdivided. At that time, large parcels
of land were set aside for local parks. Now, it is one of Toronto's
most popular neighbourhoods. |
