Indeed it is. I recently discovered this area of Toronto--I'd live up here if I wanted to be secluded from "urban toronto."

Here's where it all begins--if you're into skiing or nature trails, it's a perfect place to hang out (Earle Bales Park.)

@Sheppard and Don River Blvd (take a left under the Sheppard bridge and you'll discover a small enclave of homes.)

If you're in the mood for a walk south, you may be in the mood for Toronto-style skiing.

Whoa, seriously? There are ski hills within the Toronto boundaries. Awesome, I'll have to check this out.

There's also one in Centennial Park in Etobicoke.

Well, the ski hill in Earl Bales park is really just a chicken run....

Now, winding back to summer 2008, I really fell in love with this white house, on what street in Toronto?

 

[androiduk]

Beautiful! I'm gonna guess North Dr. near Scarlett & Eglinton.

 

[urbandreamer]

No. But here's a hint: I did a photo tour of the area in 2008 (posted in UT photo section.)

Alexandra Wood?

Yes! I love that street. And especially this white house. It's basically 95% Orthodox though. (For those that don't know, it's just east of Bathurst and Glencairn.)

August 7, 2008 found me here:

Yeah, it's an easy one this time, but since I am eagerly looking forward to warm weather again, and just "found" this gorgeous view on my hard drive, I'm showing y'all.

Where exactly is this view to be found in Toronto?

Some of these pics remind me of SE PA-Philadelphia area...

UD: The first three pics you posted in this topic remind me of Suburban Philadelphia and SE PA - That second one with those "Twins" most of all.
But-those fancy lightpole brackets are absolutely Toronto,though!

Bathurst looking south, just south of Vaughan.

 

[urbandreamer]

Indeed. I love the view driving down and seeing Lake Ontario beyond.

Three of my favourite Toronto apartment buildings are on ______ street. Photo taken by me on 28 April 2008 (can't wait 'til spring again....)

Are these rental buildings on the right?

 

[adma]

Alexander!

 

[urbandreamer]

Indeed. I love the way the apartment buildings on the right have red brick facades up the balcony sides--makes it seem like you live in a bungalow in a way....

Once again, 28 April found me exploring many parts of early spring 2008 Toronto. Where am I standing to take this photograph?
