4 Corners

4 Corners is the moniker used by local youths and young adults in reference to four separate government housing communities situated on different corners in the north/east section of North York, Ontario, Canada. Each community is located within the vicinity of one square block on the corners of Leslie Street, Sheppard Avenue East, Don Mills Road, and Finch Ave. East. In the Sheppard/Leslie corner is Villaways, in the Don Mills/Sheppard corner is Allenbury, in the Don Mills/Finch corner is Brahms, and in the Leslie/Finch corner is Sparroways. Popular hangouts for 4 Corner youths include the Peanut Plaza on Don Mills Road, Oriole Community Center and Fairview Mall (also located on Don Mills Road). Although the 4 Corners consist of mainly middle-class to affluent neighbourhoods, it is still considered one of many areas in North York where muggings, street robberies and swarming occurs. The area also has a sizable Asian, Persian and Caribbean population within the community.
