Toronto, the big TO, now THAT's what I call a city in every sense of the word. I used to love just walking up and down Yonge St. and go off in tandem to various neighborhoods bordering it. Thanks for bringing back pleasant memories of TO.

hey olga, here are some shots from North York city Centre (on Yonge between Sheppard and North York Civic Centre)
So suburban....... blah!!!
almost too hard to believe that 2 subway lines cross here......
Its' gonna take a long time for this place to develop into the same type of electric hub, like say...
YongeandEglinton.... (maybe another 20 years)
Time to get out of here.....
I was in Summerhill-St.Clair today.. oh my god.. what a difference. North York Yonge street is very busy during office hours.. but if there is no work, the action there tails off big time...
I still need to hit up:
Bloor-Yonge-Rosedale
YongeandEglinton
YongeLawerence
