Sugar Beach. Looks like this place has the 'little old lady' seal of approval. But if they could just make those benches a little lower to the ground.

"A number of ancient structures still populate the Mimico neighbourhood." QUOTE androiduk
Was not this business for many years on the s/s of King West, 1 street + east of Bathurst?
They may have moved but this does not look to be MIMICO to me.

^ This is Lakeshore & 28th, so technically I guess it's Long Branch. I usually lump Mimico, New Toronto & Long Branch together.

"The Lakeshore", as it was/is known included Mimico, (homes), New Toronto, (homes + industry) + Long Branch. (largely homes + industry)
There are some great pics on the Toronto Archives re Lakeshore Road giving Mimico the lion's share it seems. Major topograpical changes
due to creeks/ravines have altered the area to what is now. These are mostly from Parklawn Road to Mimico Avenue. Few of these have been
documented that I can see, although pics must be available somewhere.

My mom worked in New Toronto in the 50's. Must have seemed like a big commute to most people back then.

A great many people lived close to where they worked up to + including the late 50's/early 60's. Imagine though, the thoughts of
those who were employed by Rexall Drugs - 68/70 Broadview Avenue, uprooted as they were, to Dixie Road + Dundas Highway
pre the Gardiner Expressway.

'Foot'. Yonge & Gould.
Android: This pic cracked me up! Is that Fred Flintstone's feet? I like the way you caught the word FOOT in this pic!
Happy new year to you and all here at UT- LI MIKE
