Whitby, Municipal town in Ontario, Canada
Located 48 kilometers east of Toronto on Lake Ontario's north shore, Whitby spans 146 square kilometers with urban developments in the south and rural areas north.
The settlement began in 1800, but the downtown center emerged in 1836 when Peter Perry established the foundation for what would become the Durham Region headquarters.
The Station Gallery operates in a Victorian Grand Trunk Railway building, presenting exhibitions from regional artists and offering educational programs throughout the year.
Durham Region Transit connects Whitby to neighboring municipalities, while GO Transit provides regular train service to Toronto with departures every thirty minutes.
