Downsview was originally a farm in the 1870s located near the present-day intersection of Keele Street and Wilson Avenue. The area includes several large post-World War II subdivisions. Within the area is Downsview Airport, the former site of Canadian Forces Base Downsview, which has since been largely converted following the end of the Cold War into an urban park known as Downsview Park.
