Over time pockets of industrial land mostly followed rail lines and later highway corridors as the city grew outwards This trend continues to this day the largest factories and distribution warehouses are in the suburban environs of Peel and York Regions; but also within the current city: Etobicoke (concentrated around Pearson Airport) North York and Scarborough The West Don Lands is one of many former industrial sites in the downtown area that has undergone redevelopment Many of Toronto's former industrial sites close to (or in) Downtown have been redeveloped including parts of the Toronto waterfront the rail yards west of downtown and Liberty Village the Massey-Harris district and large-scale development is underway in the West Don Lands the Gooderham & Worts Distillery produced spirits until 1990 and is preserved today as the "Distillery District," the largest and best-preserved collection of Victorian industrial architecture in North America. Some industry remains in the area including the Redpath Sugar Refinery Similar areas that retain their industrial character but are now largely residential are the Fashion District Corktown and parts of South Riverdale and Leslieville Toronto still has some active older industrial areas such as Brockton Village Mimico and New Toronto in the west end of Old Toronto and York the Weston/Mount Dennis and the Junction areas still contain factories meat-packing facilities and rail yards close to medium-density residential although the Junction's Union Stockyards moved out of Toronto in 1994 The "brownfield" industrial area of the Port Lands on the east side of the harbour is one area planned for redevelopment. Formerly a marsh that was filled in to create industrial space it was never intensely developed its land unsuitable for large-scale development because of flooding and unstable soil it still contains numerous industrial uses such as the Portlands Energy Centre power plant some port facilities some movie and TV production studios a concrete processing facility and various low-density industrial facilities the Waterfront Toronto agency has developed plans for a naturalized mouth to the Don River and to create a flood barrier around the Don making more of the land on the harbour suitable for higher-value residential and commercial development a former chemicals plant site along the Don River is slated to become a large commercial complex and transportation hub Public spaces. . 4 References View of Chinatown on Spadina Avenue The city's population grew by 4% (96,073 residents) between 1996 and 2001 1% (21,787 residents) between 2001 and 2006 4.3% (111,779 residents) between 2006 and 2011 and 4.5% (116,511) between 2011 and 2016 in 2016 persons aged 14 years and under made up 14.5% of the population and those aged 65 years and over made up 15.6% the median age was 39.3 years the city's gender population is 48% male and 52% female.
