History

Morningside was first named “Elderslie.” This moniker was changed in 1856, when a post office was founded in the Morningside Inn. The owner of the Inn was known as Thomas Dowswell, and hailed from a small town in England called Morningside.

This Inn was historically important since it was the initial meeting place for the Scarborough Municipal Council. The previous Township of Scarborough kept conducting their meetings at the Morningside Inn until 1921, when the council chambers were moved to Kingston Road.

When the development of this area happened in the 1950s, the notable Morningside Inn was torn down to make room for the Painted Post Plaza. A large stone marker with a historical plaque can be found adjacent to the shopping plaza in honour of the Morningside Inn.

Transportation
