一、地理位置及形成历史
Lawrence Park西起Yonge街，东至Bayview Ave，南起Sherwood park和Blythwood Ravine，北至Lawrence Ave。
Lawrence Park是加拿大著名的富人区之一，也是最早有规划进行建设的郊区花园住宅区之一。该住宅区于1907年由Dovercourt Land Building and Saving Company公司开始建设，他们从John Lawrence得到了公园北侧的土地进行开发，并以此命名该社区。Lawrence Park以“贵族社区”模式进行开发建设，但是它的开发因二战而暂停，之后，直至1950年代才最终建成。
二、自然环境和生活配套设施
Lawrence Park 是多伦多市区具有田园风格的居住区，该区仍然居住有大批英国新教徒及其后裔。该区居民家庭年收入都在六位数字以上。
良好的建筑品质和优雅极具品味的装修风格打造出该社区典雅、奢华的气息。
在Lawrence Park附近可以找到很多非常好的商店和餐厅。Yonge街的这一段，有著名的体育用品商店，如Sporting Life, Puma, lululemon；地道的餐厅，如North 44, Centro, Grazie；还有一流的家具、服饰及其他用品商店。
该区居民的交通也十分方便，可以通过Bayview extension 或 Yonge 地铁线快速到达市中心。也可以方便快速的进入401高速路。
三、区内学校
另一个很大的亮点就是Lawrence Park区内集中了多伦多市很多的优秀公校和名列前茅的私校。无论是过去还是现在，该区内学校的“软件”、“硬件”都令人羡慕。很多学校仅从外观看就给人一种气势宏伟、积淀深厚的感觉，而拥有自己的室内游泳馆则更是它们的基础设施之一。近年来兴起的开发商整体开发某一社区，必须捆绑升级该区内公立学校的政策，更使得Lawrence Park区内多所中小学受益非浅，办学条件进一步升级。
