Lansing-Westgate

Canada

Lansing-Westgate is a neighbourhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, located in the former municipality of North York. It is bounded by Yonge Street to the east, Highway 401 to the south, Bathurst Street to the west, and Burnett Avenue to the north.

The area originated as a minor settlement centred at the corner of Yonge Street and Sheppard Avenue, with a store, services, and post office. It was designated a postal village before being consolidated with the neighbouring postal villages of Newtonbrook and Willowdale into a new postal village named Willowdale within the Township of North York. When North York was amalgamated into the City of Toronto in 1998, the area became part of the larger city, which designated Lansing as Lansing-Westgate for neighbourhood planning purposes.
