Russell Creek was a short creek, 3.4 kilometres (2.1 mi) long, that flowed through what is now downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada, west of the original town of York.[1] The creek was named for Peter Russell[1] and flowed through generally southeast,[2] like all the other waterways in Toronto, reflecting the recent glaciation, into Toronto Harbour near the present CN Tower. It has been largely filled in, but traces of it can still be found, for instance on the grounds of the historic Grange mansion.
