Character
View of a commercial area in Bracondale Hill, from Vaughan Road and Ellsworth Avenue

The area is home to mostly large, early 20th century, single-family homes surrounding Hillcrest Park that overlook the city. Many multicultural restaurants and shops are located nearby on St. Clair West to the north, and on Davenport Road/Ossington Avenue to the southwest of the neighbourhood.

Its main commercial shopping area is along St. Clair Avenue. It has several main streets: Bathurst Street, a four-lane arterial road running north–south on the east; St. Clair Avenue, a four-lane arterial road, with streetcar right-of-way, on the north running east–west; and Davenport Road running east–west to the south.

In the eastern section at Bathurst and Davenport is the Wychwood Park enclave. From 1926 to 1967, a part of this area was represented by the Bracondale constituency in the Ontario Legislative Assembly.[1][2]

gollark: So I guess you would have to either allow people to patent only new-for-CC things and ignore most existing implementations, or basically not allow patenting anything. Although I think patents (and half the legal system) as they stand aren't a great system and probably should not be copied into games?
gollark: At least, they mostly do somewhat new-for-CC things (except OSes) but not things which haven't been done before in another context.
gollark: Because most CC things are not, some offense in general to people maybe but not really, novel enough to be patentable, because of "prior art".
gollark: So how does it work, you can arbitrarily patent things then sue people?
