Weston, also known as the S. Brady Farm, is a historic home and farm located at Middletown, New Castle County, Delaware. It was built about 1850, and consists of the original two-story brick farmhouse adjoining a later and larger brick three-story addition whose design displays influences of both Greek Revival and Italianate styles. It features large pairs of sawnwork brackets supporting the overhanging boxed cornice. Also on the property are a contributing icehouse, smokehouse, barn, granary, and tenant house.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
Weston GO Station is a GO Transit and Union Pearson Express train station on the Kitchener line in Toronto, Canada. It is located on the south side of Lawrence Avenue West, just east of Weston Road, in the neighbourhood of Weston. Two set of platforms have been built; UP Express trains stop at high-level platforms separate from the low-level GO Transit platforms.
The station is fully accessible with pedestrian entrances from Weston Road and Lawrence Avenue. A pedestrian bridge that crosses Lawrence just east of Weston Road allows access to the station. The parking lot in front of the station is accessed from Weston Road and has a capacity of 144 cars. It includes a kiss and ride passenger drop off area. There is an additional 110-space parking lot north of John Street, which is owned by the City of Toronto but leased by GO Transit.
The first stations at this location were the Weston Stations of the Canadian National Railway (CNR) and Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR). The CNR station was built in 1856 by the Grand Trunk Railway (GTR) which was absorbed by the CNR in 1923. The Toronto, Grey and Bruce Railway (TG&BR) went into service in 1871 on narrow gauge rail, which had been converted to standard gauge track by 1883, and became part of the CPR in 1884.
Weston is a town in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States in the Boston metro area. The population of Weston, as of the 2010 U.S. Census, was 11,261.
Weston is among the 10 most affluent towns with 1,000 or more households in the United States and is the third-most affluent town with a population of at least 10,000 in the United States. House prices range between 2 million to upwards of 12 and 18 million USD. It is the only town in the Boston Area to have private roads, with state of the art police patrolling 24/7. Despite a population of just 11,261, Weston's area is only slightly smaller than that of its neighbor town, Newton, Massachusetts which accounts for a much higher population of about 90,000. As a result Weston's houses are on average much larger than those present in nearby towns, with considerable space between each individual residence. It has one of the lowest crime rate among Metro-west Boston suburbs. It was a dry town from 1838 until 2008. Incorporated in 1713, the town is located on a rugged upland plateau.
