Toronto Through My Lens
I call this street art site Apple Alley because of its location: the first alley behind the Apple retail store on the SW corner of College Street and Spadina Avenue (275 College St.). In this somewhat hidden and unassuming alley there is a treasure trove of street art – there’s even a couple of Elicser projects!

I discovered this street art in an alley off King Street West, east of Strachan Avenue

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.
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!
The Panamerican Food & Music Festival is Canada’s largest annual festival of its kind. It celebrates the rich diversity of cuisine, music and art from North, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. The theme this year is Celebrating 10 Years of Flavour & Fun – Panamerican Style.
