Columbus has the Franklin Park Conservatory. Toronto has nothing like it.
What about Allan Gardens? Their outdoor landscaping is more impressive, though I'd at least say that our conservatory is a worthy comparison.

It's only expensive if you plan on earning minimum wage and shopping at Whole Paycheck/Foods for your groceries.
You'd do fine on 40-60 thousand a year. You might never own a home on that salary but renters are happier anyway.
I can't imagine living in the city on $60 grand a year. It would be awful.

I think this year I'll be living on 20,000, half of it supplied by OSAP and 6,000 going to my school. I seem to be doing alright since I'm typing this while looking out the window of my harbourfront apartment with views of the skyline and waterfront. I can fortunately say that I'm not on any anti-depressants as well. I'm quite pleased with my quality of life and actually get kind of giddy thinking about my post-school life because I live quite well right now and can't imagine what it's like to live even on 40,000/year, nevermind 60,000+.
Mystic, you either don't live in this city or province, or you have a serious vendetta against it. Every one of your posts is negative to the extreme, whether its the supposed "decay" of the city and province, calling Toronto "the town that fun forgot" or calling planes from the airshow "weapons of mass destruction". It's really quite sad that someone could be that bitter about a city with regards to things that couldn't be farther from the truth.
Are you sure you're not on anti-depressants?
You could live here quite happily on $60 grand, as long you're doctor kept you well supplied in anti-depressants.
