The Toronto Jail (more commonly known by the nickname The Don, or in the media as the Don Jail for clarity) is a provincial jail for remanded offenders in the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the Riverdale neighbourhood on Gerrard Street East near its intersection with Broadview Avenue. It gets its nickname from the nearby Don River. One reason for the popular use of the "Don" nickname is that this jail was the third or fourth to be known as the Toronto Jail. The Toronto Central Prison was also colloquially known as the Toronto Jail, as were the King Street Gaols. Ironically, The Don is the only jail to have been officially designated the Toronto Jail, yet has rarely been referred to as such outside official circles. The original Don Jail closed in 1977 and is now owned by the Bridgepoint Health Foundation which will incorporate it into a redeveloped hospital. The adjoining "new jail" will remain operational until a new facility, the Toronto South Detention Centre is completed on the site of the current Mimico Correctional Centre.
