About the Wexford Heights BIA
The Wexford Heights BIA, established in 2004 by Councillor Michael Thompson (Councillor-Ward 37, Scarborough Centre), embodies the vision of uniting the business and residential communities to cultivate a vibrant neighborhood that embraces living, working, and playing.
With over 245 business members, the Wexford Heights BIA operates under a dedicated Board of Directors, fostering a dynamic environment that reflects the rich multicultural tapestry of the Greater Toronto Area. From bustling restaurants offering cuisines from around the globe to local businesses thriving along Lawrence Avenue East (The Wexford Area), the community buzzes with diverse energy and flavor.
Proudly, the BIA spearheads initiatives such as the renowned Taste of Lawrence Festival, which celebrates the area's culinary and cultural diversity. Additionally, the BIA collaborates with the City of Toronto on ambitious streetscaping projects, ensuring ongoing revitalization efforts that enhance the area's appeal and livability.
Embedded within these endeavors are community-driven initiatives like PlazaPops and the organization of Community Cleanups, fostering a shared sense of pride and ownership among residents and businesses alike.
Step into our neighborhood—it's a melting pot of experiences waiting to be savored and explored. Welcome to Wexford Heights!
