The Don definitely delayed development. The west end was pretty much built up before WWI. The east end continued to fill in during the interwar period - the construction of the Prince Edward Viaduct spurred growth. The westward tilt is still noticeable today. Danforth and Pape, about 3.5 km from Yonge and Bloor, isn't too far from "bungalow belt" territory. Contrast that with equidistant Bloor and Dovercourt.
