Info
Scarborough City Centre is a commercial district in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Once considered the city centre for the former city of Scarborough, which was amalgamated with the rest of Toronto in 1998, the city centre remains as one of the major business districts outside Downtown Toronto.It is roughly bounded by Kennedy Road to the west, Markham Road to the east, Ellesmere Road to the south, and Sheppard Avenue to the North, spanning the official neighbourhoods of Bendale, Agincourt, and Woburn. At its core is the Scarborough Civic Centre, Albert Campbell Square, Scarborough Town Centre shopping mall, and the Canada Centre Building. The district is connected to public transit services at Scarborough Centre station by local buses and Line 3 Scarborough trains operated by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). Regional and intercity bus services stop at the adjacent Scarborough Centre Bus Terminal.
Condominium towers surround these central buildings and public spaces, forming the skyline. The major office towers in the area are those at Consilium Place, which was completed in 1991. In a band around the southern side of the city centre are densely forested parklands, between Borough Drive and Ellesmere Road. Outside the immediate city centre is mostly industrial parks and low-density housing.
