  • Summary

  • Fort York was built to defend Toronto from our dastardly neighbours to the south. It would participate in two major battles throughout its history. It lost the first one when the Americans captured York during the War of 1812, but it won the second battle, which was a decades-long fight against the developers and city planners who wanted to demolish it.
