Estate Life For The Community
Nestled between Tyndale Park and Minet’s Point, the Gables Park has a rich history. Innishore, also known as Tollendale area, is home to the Gables, a 42-acre green space with trails that wind through trees and perennials planted by the estate’s original family, the Duries. William Smith Durie, who built the home in 1860, actually purchased and docked a schooner at the property! Over the years, the Gables has been home to those with prominent names such as Whish, Forbes, Hewitt, Ardagh, Boys and their relatives. It was also used over many summers as a respite for Toronto children who were able to enjoy nature thanks to the Toronto Fresh Air Fund. The Gables has also been known as Captain Whish’s Place and was once known as The Paradise when a Mr. Hunt used it as a tavern.
