There are dozens of other horror films with unspecified locations in Toronto, which I have included on my other list, “Horror Films in Toronto with Unspecified Locations.” Note: It’s not easy to draw a hard line to distinguish what is and isn’t horror. These films span a number of genres that intersect with horror, the supernatural, dark fantasy, or comedic horror. American Psycho (2000) dir.

  • Gems of Etobicoke-Lakeshore 2017 Mayor Tory Visits the Village of Islington
    For advertising ISLINGTON information, please contact TIMES Toby Gardiner at [email protected] Volume 05 • Issue 02 • Summer 2017 Edition photo courtesy of BUILD TORONTO New Development Coming Soon – How Design Influences Community By Ken MacSporran, Architect Design affects our day to day lives in ways that we are immediately aware of and in ways that take more time to evolve. Just in the past month, two quite different public events focused upon design plans for the area around the Six Points Interchange at the west end of the Village of Islington Business Improvement Area (BIA). In April, a public presentation by the finalists in an architectural competition for a new Etobicoke Civic Centre was held; and in May, a Public Open House about the Six Points Interchange Reconfiguration was held. Both events were hosted by the City of Toronto for different reasons. The architectural competition for a new Etobicoke Civic Centre Design proposed at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Kipling Avenue included highly detailed proposals for designs that evolved over the course of several months, whereas the Public Open House about the construction process and new street design for the Six Points Interchange Reconfiguration has been over ten years in the making. However, these two recent community events are closely related in that they are both based upon the design decisions that will create a new urban street system resulting from the Six Points Interchange Reconfiguration plan. City staff from Name That Mural The first person to email various departments continue to provide progress updates through Meghan Bratt, City of Toronto field ambassador [email protected] with the responsible for communications with the public about the Interchange Reconfiguration.
