History of Liberty Village

What is now known as Liberty Village was once originally military-occupied land for the Town of York – Toronto’s forerunner. The land then shifted ownership in the years leading up to the 1850s, when the railway arrived. The railway significantly contributed to the industrialization wave in Toronto which saw mass development among both residential and commercial spaces. These developments can be seen throughout Liberty Village today, many of which have been converted into various property types including residential lofts, office spaces and studios. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, the Andrew Mercer Reformatory for Women and the Toronto Central Prison both opened housing many of the city’s offenders. Liberty Village was named based on the inmate’s liberation once they were released from prison, hence Liberty Village.
