Kodak Mount Dennis campus, circa 1915.

Kodak Heights is the name Eastman Kodak gave to its large campus in Mount Dennis, Ontario.[1][2] Kodak moved the centre of its operations in Canada to the Mount Dennis campus in 1912, and continued to operate there until 2006.

By 1925 Kodak employed 900 employees on the campus.[3]

At its largest extent the campus covered 48 acres (19 ha).[1] The campus was acquired for use as a transportation hub, and will house the western terminus of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, a new commuter railway station, a 15 bay bus terminal, and the maintenance and storage yards for the Eglinton Crosstown's rolling stock.[2]

Local residents argued that the employee's recreation building, the only building still standing, should be restored, even though it had been heavily vandalized.

At the height of its operations Kodak the campus contained over a dozen buildings, of which only Kodak building 9 remains.[1][2][4]
