Welcome to The Highland Creek Community Association!
Highland Creek is an east Scarborough neighbourhood surrounding the Highland Creek water system. Our heritage neighbourhood borders Lake Ontario to the south and The Rouge National Park to the north. At the heart of our neighbourhood is Highland Creek Village, a commercial village centre with roots dating back to the mid 1800’s. In the 1850's, Highland Creek was the largest residential and business centre in the former Township of Scarborough. Highland Creek was officially recognized as a community in 1852, when it was granted its own post office. A little more of Our Vast History... Highland Creek Community Association (HCCA) is a volunteer group of residents who are dedicated to the preservation, development and improvement of the Highland Creek community. The HCCA plans and co-ordinates annual events for the neighbourhood folks to gather together, have fun, and enjoy the season. Also, HCCA represents the Highland Creek community at all levels of government on local planning and development issues. We advocate on behalf of our residents. *Become a Member of the HCCA today!

Highland Creek Development Survey Proposed developments in Highland Creek have residents concerned as to the future of our Heritage neighbourhood. The Highland Creek Community Association created a short SURVEY to obtain feedback on proposed developments that affect the residents of Highland Creek and the greater community bordering and visiting Highland Creek. The survey is now closed. Results of the Highland Creek Development Survey were shared with City Planner Sophie Knowles and Christian Ventresca, Ward 25 Councillor Jennifer McKelvie, within the August 2020 Highland Creek Villager News.
