### About This Walk
We’re exploring one of Toronto’s most character-filled west-end corridors — from leafy residential streets and vibrant local strips to former industrial lands transformed into creative hubs — ending with free Friday admission at MOCA.
This walk proceeds rain, snow , or shine. Only sign up if you're able to walk in all kinds of weather.
This is a social, urban-discovery stroll with stories, architecture, neighbourhood trivia, and plenty of photo ops.
