Highland Creek, Toronto

Highland Creek, Toronto

Highland Creek is a community in south-east Scarborough in the eastern section of Toronto, Ontario, Canada that lies along the southern portion of the river of the same name. To the east are the communities of Port Union and West Rouge, to the west West Hill and Woburn, and to the south Centennial Scarborough.

As it is along the original highway now renamed Old Kingston Road between Toronto and Kingston, Ontario, it is home to some of the oldest buildings in Scarborough. Highway 2A runs just south of the community core.

The University of Toronto at Scarborough and Colonel Danforth Park are in the community.
