Toronto

Went to Wonderland yesterday and got this fantastic sunset shot of Leviathan. Wanted to share.

Toronto’s bike lanes had undergone a significant growth spurt since the pandemic, carving out safer spaces for cyclists.

“The city was finally making strides,” Ms. Ng, a doctoral student in history, said after cycling onto the leafy downtown campus of the University of Toronto.

Then came the backlash.

Some of the most popular bike lanes were making Toronto’s notorious traffic worse, according to the provincial government. So Doug Ford, Ontario’s premier, passed a law to rip out 14 miles of the lanes from three major streets that serve the core of the city.

Hi all, I'm a Vancouverite currently. I'm curious about Toronto neighbourhoods that are similar to Vancouver's Kitsilano or Fairview. These are neighbourhoods that are:

1. outside of downtown
2. but close to downtown, by its fringes
3. walkable, lots of shops and cafes

Does Toronto have stuff like this? I hear Toronto is very car centric unfortunately.
