Top Picks for Pics Top Picks for Pics Toronto has plenty of public art and tourist attractions that provide fun and memorable photo opportunities. Here are our top picks for Toronto pics. The Toronto Sign The Toronto Sign, originally installed as part of the Pan American Games in 2015, was such a hit with residents and visitors that it’s stayed. See it in Nathan Phillips Square in front of City Hall (in itself a photo-worthy Mid-Century architectural gem) in all its multicolour splendour during the day or lit up in various dramatic ways when night falls. Find The Toronto Sign on Google Maps. Canoe Landing Park Adjacent to the Gardiner Expressway and Rogers Centre, Douglas Coupland’s Red Canoe is a snapshot of Canadiana where you can also get a great view of the CN Tower in the background. Find Canoe Landing Park on Google Maps. CN Tower’s EdgeWalk EdgeWalk offers the best background shot and vantage point of our fair metropolis from the ledge of the CN Tower. You can’t take your own photo here but two photos and a video are included in the experience price. Find CN Tower EdgeWalk on Google Maps. Simcoe WaveDeck Inspired by the shorelines of Ontario’s Great Lakes, it replaces a narrow sidewalk with impressive curves that soar up to 2.6 metres above the lake and provides a great photo backdrop. Find Simcoe WaveDeck on Google Maps.. Dundas Square Our square is reminiscent of New York’s Times Square with myriad billboards in the background. The lights and colours showcase the excitement of our downtown core. (Stand on the northeast corner for best shot). Find Yonge-Dundas Square on Google Maps. Graffiti Alley South of Queen Street, our city-sanctioned alley enlivened with works of art from graffiti artists, showcases the colourful side of Toronto. In the crevices of back doors and against the walls, this is a vibrant setting for shutterbugs. Find Graffiti Alley on Google Maps. CP24 Truck One of the most interesting pieces of art in Toronto is a former City News truck bursting through the wall of the CTV building at the corner of Queen and John, the location of the news channel’s former headquarters. Find the CP24 Truck on Google Maps. Rising Sculpture This $5 million sculpture at the Shangri-La Hotel’s exterior on University Avenue is inspired by a twisted root and covered with flights of stainless steel birds (also known as peace pigeons). It’s difficult to resist taking a picture of it. Find the Rising Sculpture on Google Maps. OCAD University Will Alsop’s colourful table-top structure located behind the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) caused quite a stir when it was erected in 2004. Whether during the day or illuminated at night, it’s a striking and quirky capture. Find the OCAD University on Google Maps. Toronto Skyline from the Toronto Islands Looking for that postcard shot of your trip? Whether you’re shooting from the Toronto Islands or on the ferry, this is one of the best vantage points of our city’s skyline. Find the Toronto Islands on Google Maps. Galleria Italia at the AGO One of the best photo opportunities at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) is the Galleria Italia. Famed architect Frank Gehry’s 50 foot high wooden beams were designed to look like the inside of a tipped canoe. Find Galleria Italia. Brookfield Place Brookfield Place is an internationally acclaimed public space with the stunning vaulted Allen Lambert Galleria, a favourite backdrop for visitors. The space is also used for prominent exhibitions and art installations. Find Sherbourne Common This park features a variety of sculptures and green spaces that provide memorable photos.

The City Room of Four Seasons Centre The City Room is the glass-enclosed main lobby of The Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts, home to operas and ballets. It provides a view just as dramatic as the performances. Find The City Room on Google Maps.

You can get some great shots from the upper level of the Museum Tavern across the street. Find the Royal Ontario Museum on Google Maps.

  • 6 7 a Moving Story About Immigrants from a Country That Has Always Been
    A moving story about immigrants from a country that has always been a magnet for immigrants, with Joe and Lorenzo Di Donato as our wonderful hosts. All in all, an ideal combination for a very special kind of city portrait: My Toronto Books and films often dramatize Canada’s wide-open spaces: the unspoilt natural environment, the untamed wilderness. Indeed, in terms of area, the country is the second-largest in the world. And at the same time, one of the most sparsely populated. Statistically speaking, just under four inhabitants share one square kilometre of land between them. Admittedly, in YYZ (Toronto airport’s interna- tional code), where we have just safely landed, things look different. Completely different. Toronto is a fascinating global metropolis, enthused Joe and Lorenzo Di Donato, when they persuaded us to pay them a visit. During our descent to the city, with its 2.6 million population, the view from the airplane window certainly looked very promising. The clock shows noon as we enjoy the feeling of terra firma under our feet after eight-and-a-half hours above the clouds. We enter the terminal to a typically warm Italian welcome from our hosts. 6 7 You need a good start to the day, advise Joe and Lorenzo, when they perfect coffee, coupled with a vision for giving coffee spe cialities their pick us up next morn ing in the hotel lobby. And even before we can rightful place in a new world, inspired our father to estab lish his own think about breakfast, we find ourselves whisked to an imposing business specializing in the import of coffee machines.
