Armadale is a neighbourhood which overlaps the city of Markham, Ontario, Markham, Ontario and the city of Toronto, Ontario, in Canada. The historical community is situated in the south-east of Markham and north-east of the former suburb of Scarborough, Toronto, Scarborough, now part of Toronto.

Archaeological initiatives spearheaded by the University of Toronto and the Royal Ontario Museum led to a wealth of First Nations in Canada, First Nation artifacts like arrowheads and pottery being unearthed. On the west half of Lot 2 Concession 8, there is even a dark patch of soil that demarcates the position of an age-old Iroquois longhouse. As early as 1805, United Empire Loyalist settlers moved into the region (Steeles Avenue and 8th Line). The community's name was first known as Magdala.

Cliffcrest, Toronto
Cliffcrest is a residential neighborhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located along the shores of Lake Ontario in the district of Scarborough, bordered by Midland Avenue to the west, the Canadian National Railway to the north, and Bellamy Road to the east.

There are fewer high or mid rise buildings in the area.
