The main entrance is located at 73 Thorncliffe Park Drive, with additional entrances at the junction of Don Mills Road and Gateway Boulevard North, and via the entrance to Sunnybrook Park and Wilket Creek Park near the junction of Leslie Street and Eglinton Avenue. The park is named after Ernest Thompson Seton, a British-born author and naturalist. Seton spent much of his childhood (1860 to 1870s) in the Don Valley near the park that bears his name. The Don River runs through the park, which makes it a popular spot for many activities.E.T. Seton Park adjoins Thorncliffe Park, Flemingdon Park, and the Ontario Science Centre. It contains jogging and cycling paths, an archery range, nordic skiing and equestrian trails, as well as three fire pits.The park's archery range is one of only two public ranges in Canada. It was listed as the archery location in Toronto's bid book for the 2015 Pan American Games, but was not used for that competition because vehicular access to the range was not possible. The archery event for the Pan American Games was held at Varsity Stadium on Bloor Street in downtown Toronto instead.In 2011, a disc golf centre was set up on the park's grounds.

Research Enterprises Limited (REL for short) was a short-lived Toronto-based Crown Corporation that built electronics and optical instruments during World War II. They existed only six years from late 1940 until 1946, and were active only from late 1941, but during that period they became Leaside's largest employer, producing C$220 million worth of radar systems and optical instruments ($3,206 million in 2022). After the war, the government rapidly closed the various wartime companies it had started. After REL was closed, their factories formed the basis of a Corning Glass plant, Philips Electronics, and a variety of other firms. Today only a few of the original buildings still stand, used primarily for light industrial and small commercial enterprises.

Crothers Woods is an area of the Don River valley in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is 52 hectares (128 acres) in size and consists of woodland, meadows, wetlands, and an assortment of past and present municipal uses. The wooded area has been designated as an Environmentally Significant Area (ESA) by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. An ESA designation is useful in highlighting valuable natural areas but this does not affect planning uses. The area is currently zoned as undeveloped parkland. Crothers Woods was named after George W. Crothers who owned and operated an equipment dealership called Crothers Caterpillar which sold and serviced new and used heavy machinery for the construction and mining industries. The company stayed until 1979 when they relocated to Vaughan, Ontario (now as Toromont CAT). Murhal Developments bought the property and eventually sold it to Loblaws which built the store that currently occupies the site just off Millwood Road.While there are no clear boundaries, Crothers Woods is generally thought to include both sides of the valley that extends from Pottery Road and the Bayview Avenue extension in the south and west to the Millwood Road bridge in the east. Further east, good quality forest exists on the north side of the valley for another 1.2 km to the western edge of E.T. Seton Park. The land in this part of the valley is owned by Alexandre Poirier and managed by the city of Toronto's Parks and Forestry Department.
