Broadview Avenue

Broadview Avenue

Broadview Avenue is a street in east end Toronto, Canada that travels along the east side of the Don River. It is one of the major streets in the neighbourhood of Riverdale. Its alignment north of Danforth Avenue was once the initial Don Mills Road, a roadway linking the expanding city to the industries found at the mills. Eventually, this designation was changed to "Broadview", and O'Connor Drive (named after Senator Frank Patrick O'Connor) is the name of the roadway continuing eastwards towards Eglinton Avenue in Scarborough.

The street is served by the 504 King and 505 Dundas streetcars.
