Historic Toronto photos from Spadina Crescent

Spadina Crescent is one of four parts of 'Spadina' in general, the circle just north of College Street in the middle of Spadina Avenue.

The name Spadina comes from the Ojibwa word ishpadinaa meaning a high place or ridge and first appeared on a published map in 1834.

The complete list of streets is available here. And don't forget the photos by date and photos by neighbourhood pages.
