Rexdale Plaza

Explore the roots of one of Toronto's most storied suburban developments at Rexdale Plaza, where mid-century ambition meets community history. Stroll the area and reflect on how developer Rex Heslop shaped an entire neighbourhood — homes, industry, and all — from the ground up in the postwar boom. It's a quietly fascinating slice of the city's growth story, perfect for the curious urbanist who likes their after-work walk with a side of context. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
