Fort York is one of Toronto’s newest residential neighbourhoods, located in one of Toronto’s most historic areas. The Fort York military garrison, after which this neighbourhood is named, occupies 43 acres of land beside the newly created residential neighbourhood. The War of 1812 included the Battle of York in 1813 which saw Fort York destroyed by the American army. It was rebuilt in 1814, and Fort York is a designated National Historic Site.
