The Distillery District holds the largest collection of Victorian industrial architecture in North America The city of Toronto originally formed as a result of its good harbour and the port was the source of the city's prosperity for most of its early history the oldest parts of the city are thus by the harbour with newer growth spreading out in all directions possible Around the harbour grew up a belt of industrial structures especially just east and west of downtown These included massive facilities such as Gooderham and Worts whiskey distillery and Massey Ferguson's farm equipment factories in the later half of the nineteenth century the railways became Toronto's main connection with the outside world and further industrial areas grew up around the freight lines in areas such as Weston and East York In the 1970s deindustrialization began to have a dramatic effect on Toronto By the 1990s almost all of the older factories by the waterfront were gone Some of the newer facilities further north still remain but are constantly disappearing Many of the more historic industrial buildings have been converted into lofts and offices Most have been demolished and in their place dozens of condominium towers have been erected by the lake shore There are also still large stretches of abandoned industrial land in the Port Lands district and other parts of Toronto awaiting a redevelopment plan Residential architecture. Some municipalities considered part of the GTA are not within the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) whose land area (5,904 km2 in 2006) and population (5,928,040 as of the 2016 census) is thus smaller than the land area and population of the GTA planning area for example Oshawa is the centre of its own CMA yet deemed part of the Greater Toronto Area while other municipalities such as New Tecumseth in southern Simcoe County and Mono Township in Dufferin County are included in the Toronto CMA but not in the GTA. These different border configurations result in the GTA's population being higher than the Toronto CMA by nearly one-half million people often leading to confusion amongst people when trying to sort out Toronto's urban population Other nearby urban areas such as Hamilton Barrie or St Catharines-Niagara and Kitchener-Waterloo are not part of the GTA or the Toronto CMA but form their own CMAs near the GTA. Ultimately all the aforementioned places are part of the Greater Golden Horseshoe metropolitan region an urban agglomeration, which is the fourth most populous in North America When the Hamilton Oshawa and Toronto CMAs are agglomerated with Brock and Scugog they have a population of 6,170,072.
