Book overview
Since Eric Arthur's 1964 publication of Toronto, No Mean City, no book has provided such deep insight into a community as Flemingdon Park, No Mean Neighbourhood. From prehistory to the arrival of Indigenous peoples, European settlers, the simple ribbon-cutting ceremony in 1961 marking the neighbourhood's official opening, and up to the present day, Edward Brown explores various topics, including history, architecture, politics, and most importantly, the people who continue to shape this unique and diverse community. Tireless research, combined with masterful storytelling, vividly brings the history of a Toronto neighbourhood to life in Flemingdon Park, No Mean Neighbourhood.
