TLTV's 105th episode is almost ready and should be online by the end of the week!
Episode 105 focuses on the Evergreen Brickworks. Formerly known as the Toronto Brickworks, this former brick quarry and factory used to produce bricks for most of the pre-1980 homes in The GTA as well as some of the city's most prominent buildings, like Massey Hall and Old City Hall. The site was all but abandoned until the 1990s when certain parties bought the site and restored the area. The brick factory is still under renovation, but much of the urban graffiti that covered the inside of the building is being left in place, which you will see in this episode. The whole project is so environmental that National Geographic named it one of the world's top 10 geotourism destinations. In fact, the office building being built on the site will be so environmental when finished that it will be one of the greenest buildings in the Western Hemisphere. A popular farmer's market, conference & event facilities, camps and family programs round out what will be a major GTA landmark for many years to come.
Stay tuned!
