The world's longest |
Queen's Quay West north to City Limits Toronto, ON M4W 2H1 +1 416 597 0255 (Downtown Yonge Business Improvement Area) http://www.downtownyonge.com/ |
Not only does this street designate Toronto's east-west split, it is also the city's longest thoroughfare. In fact, Yonge is known as the world's longest street, stretching from Lake Ontario to the town of Rainy River, more than 1900 km away. Originally used as a trail by the Hurons, the road became an official passage in the 1790s. Today it is a burgeoning commercial district and a beehive of activity, especially in the section between Front and Lawrence. One of Toronto's three subway lines operates along this route.
