What Toronto street is this?

[urbandreamer]

Not Beverly. Beverly is filled with "grand" residences, not dives like on this street.

Grand? I'd say they're not much better!

It must be a street in the neighbourhood of the AGO, maybe Stephanie or Baldwin (pre restaurant strip).

 

[urbandreamer]

No. It's on the west side of Adam Vaughan's ward, aka, Trinity-Spadina.

Looking towards the South side of Richmond Street, East of Tecumseth St.

It took me a while to figure it out. Looked really familiar, but odd at the same time — it's because I'm used to looking down it from the other direction while driving

^Congrats, you nailed it!

Ps, the "institution" I was at? Toronto Rehearsal Factory, rehearsing for my upcoming tour....

 

[allabootmatt]

correct! I love the dog.

One of my favourite Toronto buildings is up for sale--who wants to buy it and turn it into a funky cafe?--on the right. What hipster spot is located at this intersection of what streets?

Those lamps look *so* sharp. Very Chicago-ish. Why more neighbourhoods haven't copied the Junction template I will never know....

16 January 2009 found me on __________ @________:

 

[Urban Shocker]

College @ Ossington.

 

[urbandreamer]

Indeed, in fact just east of Ossington on College--Boom Breakfast (cheap, greasy and bland) is just out of the shot to the left. And the Cube Lofts site is on the right, behind that falling down renovation....

Later that same day, found me here:

The commune I lived in, when I went to art school, was at 816A College - above the White Rose pool hall, which was there until about five years ago. That's where we had the laughing gas parties.

Harbord & Palmerston, looking East.

(I get my hair cut near here)

Now that's a Chicago streetlamp. A brash version of our old City of Toronto style lamp.

Who cares about Chicago vs. Toronto debates? Not me.

Anyhow, here's a "forever vista" taken 16 January 2009, at ________ & _______, Toronto Canada.
