Newtonbrook, nestled at Toronto's northern tip, is cradled by the picturesque Don River Valley's east and west branches, offering a scenic and recreational haven for its residents. This neighbourhood, with roots stretching back to the early 1800s, was once centred around bustling mills along the Don River, reflecting its industrious beginnings. The Newton Brook Wesleyan Church served as the spiritual and social centre of the community, named after the respected Reverend Robert Newton. One of its notable early settlers, Lieutenant Colonel William S. Durie, established the basis for Drewry Avenue in 1847. Originally called "Pope's Lane," it reflected the growing number of Roman Catholic residents. Today, the "Rueter House" on Drewry is a testament to Newtonbrook's early history, showcasing the area's rich historical background.

The area has a diverse demographic composition, including many Korean, Chinese, and Iranian residents, reflected in the local businesses, restaurants, and cultural events. This multicultural aspect adds to the richness and vibrancy of the community. Newtonbrook East features a mix of housing types, including detached and semi-detached homes, townhouses, and condominiums. The residential architecture ranges from older, post-war homes to more contemporary housing developments, catering to various tastes and budgets.
