1851 Fleming: Topographical plan of the city of Toronto, in the province of Canada

Much changed within the Reserve in the dozen and a half years preceding the making of this map. The area east of Garrison Creek was almost all subdivided and sold off. A new fort or Garrison was built to the south-west. And a Lunatic Asylum was erected within its own grounds on Queen Street.
