Welcome to the Toronto Street Furniture Database
This project began as an obscure, personal Flickr page in 2010 that was transformed into a cooperative wiki endeavor in 2018. If you would like to contribute to the TSFDB please refer to our Guidelines page.
In addition to utilizing the Search Bar* at the top of this site to find specific street signs, all entries have been arranged in the following functional categories:
Communications - Furniture including mailboxes and telephones;
Disposal - Furniture including trash cans, recycling bins, etc.;
Lighting - Furniture including street lights, traffic signals, etc.;
Media - Furniture including billboards, publication boxes, and information pillars;
Plumbing - Furniture including drinking fountains, fire hydrants, and public toilets;
Seating - Furniture including public benches, picnic tables, etc.;
Shelter - Furniture including transit shelters and similar structures;
Transportation - Furniture including bike stands and parking meters.
Furniture has also been arranged geographically by way of the six former municipalities which constitute the current City of Toronto:
East York | Etobicoke | North York | Scarborough | Toronto | York
Moreover, certain entries have been further categorized in terms of Furniture Families and Furniture Sets. One may also find it useful to browse our Thematic Galleries, and be sure to check out our sister site, the Toronto Street Sign Database, for an equally comprehensive collection of the same.
*A note on using the Search Bar: The auto-complete/suggestion function on this, and all other Wikia sites, produces somewhat misleading results. Unfortunately the search bar only recognizes the first term in any query, therefor a search of "Junction" will show a result for Junction Gardens but not The Junction. You must complete your search (by pressing enter) to display a full list of applicable results.
