Forest Hill Village, incorporated in 1923, was annexed by the City of Toronto in 1967. The village, which was also sometimes known as Spadina Heights, was named after the location of the summer home of St Lawrence Market butcher John Wickson. Landmarks of the neighborhood include: Upper Canada College, Bishop Strachan School, Forest Hill Collegiate Institute, Timothy Eaton Memorial Church and Grace Church-on-the-Hill. Notable residents include the Canadian figure skater Kurt Browning, musicians Nelly Furtado and Drake, Galen Weston Sr. and Larry Tanenbaum.
