Come out to Toronto's Harbourfront and experience first hand, both the natural and constructed beauty of this city. On this tour, I'll tell you about urban environments around the world and why Toronto's waterline has been so successful in its revitalization projects over the last 50 years. We'll go on a walk along the lake Ontario's northern shore and through Canadian National Exhibition Grounds, Ireland Park, Little Norway Park. & more. As we go, we'll talk about the history of parks in Toronto & discuss their names. I'll also address the Toronto Islands (largest car-free community in North America), the people that still live there & how their daily life actually looks like. We'll see the remnants of the old industrial waterfront as well & wrap our day at Distillery District, which still houses the largest collection of industrial Victorian buildings on the continent, having become one of our most visited tourist destinations. I planned this tour as an urban hike: we'll walk about 6 km (under 4 miles).
-We'll start near the Dufferin Gates, entrance to the Exhibition Grounds, near The Medieval Times. -We'll continue towards Toronto's oldest standing house: the Scadding Cabin. -Afterwards, we'll walk through the Exhibition Grounds (CNE, BMO Field, Honda Indy, conference centre, etc. ) -We'll then go along Fleet street, past an Armory & into Coronation Park. -Next, we'll see Little Norway & Ireland Parks. -Later, we'll go from Queens Quay onto Toronto's Music Garden, HTO Parks, Amsterdam Brewhouse & bridge. -Next, Harbourfront Centre. -Along the way we'll marvel at CN Tower & the former Skydome (Rogers Centre). -A gallery at The Powerhouse & The Terminal Shopping Centre. -Moving further west, we'll swing by Toronto's newest park (Love Park). -Next, Jack Layton Ferry & the start of the world's (former) longest street. -We'll then pass by Redpath Sugar Plant & Sugar Beach. -From there, we'll continue along Queens Quay to Jarvis & then north to Distillery District. -At last, Heart Sculpture & LOVE lock exhibit.
