The "Out of the Box" program StreetART engaged local artist Jim to paint the traffic control box in the north end of Queen's Park North, where Queen's Park Crescent East and West meet. The artwork was inspired by the adjacent 48th Highlanders Regimental Memorial, erected in 1923. Keep an eye out for the finished product!

Welcome to the Bay Cloverhill Community Association (BCCA). We are a grassroots volunteer organization dedicated to improving the Charles/Yonge/College/Queen’s Park neighbourhood for residents.
The neighbourhood is anchored by Queen’s Park and provincial government offices, as well as many historic buildings at the University of Toronto, St. Michael’s College and Victoria College. Women's College Hospital is located in the area. Midsize office buildings and various restaurants/stores in the Yonge Street corridor offer a choice for the 20,000 tenants, cooperative and condominium owners who live in the area. Due to its central location, the subway is steps away in every direction. In 2014, the federal Census boundaries were changed, with Bay Street Corridor split into two areas: Bay-Cloverhill (Bloor Street to Yonge Street to College Street to University Avenue/Queen's Park Crescent) and Yonge Bay Corridor (College Street to Yonge Street to Front Street to University Avenue). As a result of the federal ward redistribution process in 2022, in 2025 the University-Rosedale federal electoral district eastern boundary was moved from Bay Street to Yonge Street, meaning that the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood is solely in the University Rosedale riding #35112. Previously it was split between University Rosedale (west of Bay Street) and Toronto Centre (east of Bay Street). The neighbourhood encompasses two provincial electoral districts: University-Rosedale (west of Bay Street) and Toronto Centre (east of Bay Street). Traditionally, provincial and municipal electoral districts mirror the federal boundaries. However, the current provincial government has indicated that they will not change provincial electoral district boundaries. As a result, the provincial electoral districts will remain the same boundaries as the former federal ridings; University-Rosedale District 112 (west of Bay Street) and Toronto Centre District 109 (east of Bay Street). The existing municipal wards are University-Rosedale Ward 11 and Toronto Centre Ward 13. Toronto can determine ward boundaries independently of the province and federal boundaries, but they are currently the same as the provincial electoral districts. The municipal school trustee wards are Ward 7 (as of April 2026) for the Toronto District School Board, Ward 9 for the Toronto District Catholic School Board, Ward 3 Centre for Conseil Scolaire Viamonde and Ward 3 Toronto West for Conseil Scolaire Catholique MonAvenir. The area is served by Toronto Police Service, 52 Division, located at 255 Dundas Street West. Toronto Fire Station 314 at 12 Grosvenor Street (possibly the cutest fire station in the City) responds to calls in the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood. Station 45 of the Toronto Paramedic Services is based at 135 Davenport Road and provides emergency medical service. 
The northern most portion of the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood is covered by of the Bloor Yorkville Business Improvement Area, specifically the south side of Charles Street West to St. Mary Street, from west of Bay Street to St. Nicholas Street, as well as the south side of Charles Street West between St. Nicholas Street and Yonge Street, and the west side of Yonge Street just south of Charles Street West.
Some of the south part of the Bay Cloverhill area is a member of the Downtown Yonge Business Improvement Area, from Bay Street to Grenville Street to Yonge Street to Carlton Street. |
