I like Toronto.

Good thread!
|
One of the best Toronto tours we're seen recently. Love those neighborhood commercial strips.
|
Well done!
|
Now my memory could be slipping, but I can't say I recall seeing so many neighborhood shots of Toronto. Thanks for sharing, I have been a bit more educated about this nice looking city.
|
thanks for posting these pics of a rarely seen & usually unheard of city
what's the population? |
ohhhhh, how I love Toronto!
|
I'm glad to hear that others enjoyed my photos! Thanks everyone! :)
|
Nice shots Ohioguy.
Next time venture further east of The Beach into the Scarborough Bluffs :) |
Great thread.:tup:
|
Excellent shots, OhioGuy! Looks like you really got around in just a couple of days.
|
Nice pictures. It looks like you covered a lot of neighborhoods.
I was in Toronto in April a few years ago now, and hit some of the neighborhoods that you did: Old Town, the Financial District, etc. It was cloudy and cold that day, and your pictures remind me of my trip. It's always a little strange to see a beach area (The Beaches neighborhood, in this case) when it's not Summer. |
awesome work! Makes me ashamed that I've never been to Toronto.

the population is 2.4 million |
For those of you who don't know Toronto at all ...

Correct, but please let me elaborate on that point (this might interest other readers, too). The 2.4 million figure is for the actual CITY of Toronto, an amalgam of the much smaller (pop AND area) plus five metroplitan boroughs: the city itself, and five bouroughs, York and East York close in to the city, North Yourk, Scarborough and Etibicoke (don't pronounce the "k") into what then became Metropolitan Toronto. However including immediate neighbours, such as Missississauga on the West, and those to the North, metroplitan Toronto (the GMTA is it is now called) - though smaller in size than "metro" Houston, still pulls in at approaching 6 million, often causing it to be ranked with Houston as the fourth or fifth largest city in North America. |
the people demand subways, subways, subways and not streetcars.
|
damn right. and screw those leftard starbucks loving downtown pinkos that don't know how the world works. they have 2 subway lines, why can't us suburbanites have any??!!!!! and I call bullshit on the density part. subways are necessary for proper-city building. oh, and I want to post a 10 floor height limit around the subway lines we build, cause you know, don't want to have shadows on my house. plus skyscrapers cause too much car traffic. and NO new taxes for the subways. you need to print money for them, yes, that will work. get companies to pay for it! that would be even better! get the mall to spend $4 billion on the subway that goes to it. because you know, a mall worth maybe $500 million will stick out that kind of cash. there, you got your funding model, and your urban planning right there. no more streetcars clogging up our streets.
