Beth Tzedec Memorial Park
Beth Tzedec Memorial Park is a Jewish cemetery on Bathurst Street in North York, Ontario.
Established in 1949 by the Beth Tzedec Congregation, the cemetery is located next to Park Lawn Cemetery, Westminister Memorial Park and G. Ross Lord Reservoir. The land was once the farmland of Joseph James.
As with most Jewish cemeteries in Toronto, it is located outside of the city core in what was a suburban area, and located in what is now a predominately Jewish neighbourhood.Notable burials
