Guided Walking Tour Along The Front + Food/Drinks (Union Stn.)
Details
On Wednesday, September 2nd, join me for this New Guided Walking Tour Along The Front provided by the Royal Ontario Museum. The tour will start just west of the original Town of York, where we’ll explore the site of York’s original bustling market that continues to thrive today. On our walk we’ll encounter iconic and historic buildings such as the elegant Flatiron Building, the Royal York Hotel, spacious theatres, the breathtaking Galleria & more. One of the city’s earliest thoroughfares, the landscape of Front St. East has undergone many changes over the years. On our walk, we’ll see an examine these changes, including the new North Market building at St. Lawrence Market, and the renovation and restoration of Union Station and other buildings.
Also on our walk, we’ll take in modern buildings, spaces, and sculptures that add even more to the story of this historic and vibrant street. These Tours are guided by docents, and run rain or shine. However, if the forecast calls for rain, I will make a call 3 hours prior if I will show up, as others may want to continue in the rain, which the forecast has been off a lot recently.
