Toronto Island Airport
Toronto City Centre Airport is located on 80.9 hectares (200 acres) at the western end of Toronto Islands, "on the city's
front doorstep." The Island Airport (as it is also known as) is now linked across the Western Gap by ferry services. It is
hoped that in the near future a bridge will link the main land and the island, which will improve access to the TCCA.
