TLTV Ep 22 - Humber Bay - Part 2

In this second episode of the Humber Bay in springtime, we will be taking a look at some of the more tranquil areas of the park. At the far ends of the park, which jut out into Lake Ontario, it is easy to forget you are still in one of the largest cities in North America.

TLTV Ep 21 - Humber Bay - Part 1

Humber Bay Park is a beautiful waterfront park located to the west of downtown Toronto. It consists of two landspits situated at the mouth of Mimico Creek. The park was established during the mid-1800s when a number of hotels were built in the Humber Bay Village area. It was re-developed and re-opened in June 1984. Several habitat restoration projects have been initiated at Humber Bay Park and it is also a popular destination to view migrating birds. The park now contains picnic tables, trails, a playground, beach front, a field, a pool, a baseball diamond, basketball and tennis courts, and an ice rink in the winter. There are fly casting and model boating ponds and a fully accessible fishing pier.

TLTV Ep 20 - OCAD

The modern building for the Ontario College of Art and Design is one of the most unique structures in The GTA. Located next to the Art Gallery of Ontario, the OCAD building seems to float high above the ground on a few colourful stilts. It is truly dramatic and eye-catching!

We're back outside the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO), looking at the surrounding neighbourhood. We view some of the beautiful streets and pathways, great buildings both new and old (including a great old church tower), and some of the neighbourhoods nearby artwork.

The Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) was recently re-designed by famed architect Frank Gehry. It now includes a sweeping curved glass front that reflects the colourful surrounding neighbourhood, as well as a brilliant blue rear facade with a curved spiralling staircase jutting out from the back to overlook the beautiful Grange Park. We'll take a look around the outside of The AGO as well as some of the nearby streets.

We're on the road! Today we're going to drive into Downtown Toronto from the west. We'll start our journey on the Gardiner Expressway which is the main east-west artery into the downtown core.
