Pemberton Avenue
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pemberton Avenue is a short local street near Finch Avenue and Yonge Street in the community of Willowdale (or North York) in the city of Toronto.
The section from Willowdale Avenue to Kenneth Avenue consists of single family dwellings, where as the section from Kenneth Avenue to Yonge Street consists of condos of various heights (and many built by developer Pemberton Group).
Kenneth Avenue does not intersect with Pemberton Avenue, rather a small parkette named Bishop's Park separates the two sections of the road.
A third section of Pemberton Avenue is cut off by Finch Station, between Hakim Optical and the station's exit to east side of Yonge Street. In 2006 the TTC completed the re-building the western end of Pemberton Avenue as an alternate exit or entrance for buses into the station. The roadbed was re-built in order to spread the weight on top of the underground walkway to the exit on the east side of Yonge Street. There is no sign indicating the street as part of Pemberton, and it appears the link is now just laneway accessing the station and nearby stores. The former Toronto Parking Authority lot was re-located to the corner of Yonge and Bishop.
