Sage, September 2013 PhD Thesis – V. E. Sage McMaster University – Dept. of Anthropology Descriptive Note McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2011) Hamilton, Ontario (Anthropology) TITLE: Arts in the City: Visions of James Street North, 2005-2011 AUTHOR: Vanessa E. Sage, B.A. (Waterloo University), B.A. (Cape Breton University), M.A. (Memorial University of Newfoundland) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Ellen Badone NUMBER OF PAGES: xii, 231 ii PhD Thesis – V. E. Sage McMaster University – Dept. of Anthropology Abstract I argue in this dissertation that aestheticizing urban landscapes represents an effort to create humane public environments in disenfranchised inner-city spaces, and turns these environments into culturally valued sites of pilgrimage. Specifically, I focus on James Street North, a neighbourhood undergoing artistic renewal in the post-industrial city of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Based on two years of ethnographic fieldwork in the arts scene on James Street North, my thesis claims that artistic activities serve as an ordinary, everyday material response to the perceived and real challenges of poverty, crime and decay in downtown Hamilton. Aesthetic elaboration is a generative and tangible expression by arts stakeholders of their intangible hopes, desires, and dreams for the city.

  • L09F Ancaster Waterfalls Trail Guide - Torontohiking.Com
    L09F Ancaster Waterfalls Trail Guide - TorontoHiking.com WAYPOINT DISTANCE WAYPOINT-TO-WAYPOINT TRAIL DESCRIPTION INTERVAL km 001 - 002 0.4 Follow the groomed trail from the Tiffany Falls parking lot into the woods along the creek bed. The creek bed rounds a corner and there in front of you is an observation platform and the impressive Tiffany Falls (002). You can walk down the rocky creek bed right to the base of the falls. There is a steep trail up the side of the gorge to the left of the falls that leads to another Tiffany Falls – the upper falls which has a height of 6.5 m and a crest of 7 m. After viewing the falls retrace your steps to the parking lot. To access the main Bruce Trail you need to cross busy Wilson Avenue. Be very careful here! 001 - 003 1.8 Once across, go left on the main trail. This is an interesting section of the trail with some very rocky and slippery portions. You might see a few deer in the area. The trail comes out onto Old Dundas Road (003). 003 - 004 2.0 Be careful crossing this road to pick up the main Bruce Trail on the other side. Soon Sherman Falls can be seen ahead of you. The trail crosses a long wooden bridge over Ancaster Creek in front of the falls (004). 004 - 005 2.8 Leaving the falls, the trail climbs a dirt hill and follows along a fenced-off field and then goes back into the woods and follows the winding edge of the escarpment.
