This fence looks like one you might find out in the countryside but it is actually to be found near Spadina & St Clair, just north of Casa Loma, and the tall condos give a hint of its urban location. The hill is part of the containment for one of the main water reservoirs in the city and I think the fence was installed to protect the natural regeneration that is being encouraged there. The hill was a busy place last week with many birds poking about among the grasses. On the flat top of the reservoir there are tennis courts, a dog park, a running/walking path, and just nice open space.

ReplyDeletethanks for linking in!
Rustic.
ReplyDeleteWhat an unusual find. Still, it fits in with its surroundings very comfortably!
ReplyDeleteA busy place, indeed, with at least one photographer also poking around. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love it when I find contrasts like this in the city.
ReplyDeleteSurprising rustic for a city fence but I love it.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy to find these tucked away little spots, away from the city and or buildings surrounding it! Lovely!
ReplyDeletesuch a contrast!
ReplyDeleteA little bit of country in the city!
ReplyDeleteGood shot! I have seen fences like this here as well... rather different from the usual steel structures you expect in a city.
ReplyDeleteWithout the condos, I'd have thought you were on the road!
ReplyDeleteThe thing I like most about these fences is how easy it is to climb over :-)
ReplyDeleteNice photo of a urban and rural combination.
ReplyDeleteUrban country...nice shot.
ReplyDeleteNice shot with the condo building in the background. Otherwise, it could be a rural scene.
ReplyDeleteOh, I like that your city is encouraging some rural encroachment.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to see a bit of the country in the city! Great shot! Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI like the way it blends in with the surrounding area.
ReplyDeleteGreat fence. I like the country look and it appears to be a great way to keep vegetation under control.
ReplyDeleteIf it weren't for the buildings I would think it was a rural setting.
ReplyDeleteIt seems to fit the natural are for which it is a boundary.
ReplyDeleteNice one, Pat

It looks like my area more than the city...but I DO like it!
