Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

This street is named in memory of Colonel C.D. Simpson, former Base Commander at Canadian Forces Base London.

The memorial consists of the street itself and the accompanying street sign, as well as a plaque that was placed on the north-east corner of "A" Block or Wolseley Hall.
