    Sounds like a real estate term. Stupid choice.

      It has a better ring than “North Junction”. Though some other name could be devised for the area, its historical identity as the industrial area of West Toronto (Junction) is quite strong. Some real estate agents have used the term “Harwood”, which is even worse.
