Today’s PhotoWalk

August 29, 2022 / Marvin Job / 0 Comments

It was a beautiful day today, so naturally I went for a photowalk with my trusty camera. I wandered down to the Esplanade then back, capturing the city on a Saturday afternoon. Here’s a few shots from earlier today.

[Note: this is an older blog post from July 2021 which I’ve brought over from my general blog site, Ramblings. I’ve posted it here on TOcityscapes as it’s in keeping with this blog’s topic.]

A Rainy Day Walk

August 21, 2022 / Marvin Job / 0 Comments

Today I swing through College Park, walk down Yonge Street to catch the tail end of OpenStreetsTO, visit the Panamerican Food & Music Festival at Yonge-Dundas Square, and finish up on Dundas Street East where I checked out some urban scrawl.

Frogs and Lily Pads at College Park

Four years after the Aura condo tower at College Park wrapped up construction, the long-awaited revitalization of the College Park public space was completed. The old park was completed removed because the parking garage underneath required a new waterproof membrane on its roof. And… we have now have frogs!
