William Peyton Hubbard House

Discover one of Toronto's most overlooked historical landmarks on a self-guided stop along Broadview Avenue. This modest house was once home to William Peyton Hubbard, a trailblazing politician who became the first African-Canadian elected to Toronto City Council in 1894 — and went on to serve 15 terms. Standing outside, you get a quiet but powerful reminder of the city's layered past and the individuals who shaped it long before the history books caught up. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
