We have great hopes and plans for our harbourfront in Toronto, but as it stands it is strangely underappreciated and undervalued by many in Toronto.. I am excited about what the future holds for it, but like a tourist I also get out and enjoy what we have! I think there are many cities in the world that would love to have one like it! Thanks for joining me on this tour!
