For those that don't know.......Islington was a village of it's own, and if you take a look at the building to the east of the graveyard on Dundas, just west of the Burhamthorpe and Dundas intersection, you will be looking at the former "town hall " of Islington. It is now a bar.
It was the town office, and in the first few years, after the 1956 amalgamation of all the local Police forces, into the Metropolitan Toronto Police Service, it was the original 22 Division, before the current 2 District Head Quarters building was built on Bloor Street , near the six points intersection .
Prior to 1956, many of the smaller towns and villages in the Toronto area had their own Police and fire services, such as Mimico, Long Branch, New Toronto, Etobicoke, Swansea, Weston, Forrest Hill, East York, and Scarborough ( note the proper spelling of that name ) . Some of the current suburban Toronto Fire Service stations are actually ones that were built by those long gone towns, such as TFS station 16 located on De Forrest Avenue in Swansea.
The building which is now the Goodwill on Dundas, was the "Islington Post Office " when I was a boy in the 1950's.
