What To Do & See
The beautiful waterfront trails offer great views and also provide a fantastic variety of parks, restaurants, and bars to enjoy. Stroll along Royal York Road and you’ll come across many bakeries and even more dining options. Although Mimico real estate isn’t on a subway line, you can take the bus up Royal York Road to the Royal York Station, or take the GO Train from Mimico Station to get downtown.
The Local Claim to Fame
The popular Mimico Memorial Park is right on the waterfront, with three lit outdoor tennis courts with a clubhouse, a baseball diamond, a children’s playground, a splash pad, and the Mimico Tennis Club. This park is well-kept, quiet, and great for the neighbourhood families.
