Green Meadows, otherwise known as "The McDougald Estate", was constructed circa 1950 for John Angus "Bud" McDougald and his wife Hedley Maude. Though the main house, an elegant Colonial Revival mansion, is all that is left of the estate today, the McDougald property once comprised 300-acres of land stretching north from what is now Van Horne Avenue to Finch Avenue, and east from Leslie Street to what is now Don Mills Road. Green Meadows was focused around two of Bud McDougald's great interests - horses and antique automobiles. It featured barns for thoroughbreds and a track for racing, and included garages with room for 30 cars. Preserved and restored when the surrounding estate was developed into residential neighbourhoods, the main house remains a fine example of a Canadian Establishment estate house from the mid-twentieth century.
