Naming The Lanes


 The city has a program where the laneways are being given names that are relevant to their neighbourhood and Reggae Lane has been given official status as you can see from the sign. The stoplights there mark the corner of Oakwood & Eglinton Aves and you can see evidence of some of the construction in the area which is ongoing.

Laneways with names is something new to me.

That's a fine name for this lane. The name makes it sound like a fun place to be.

Ah Canada! Thank you for showing us how it can and should be. The US will come back to sanity.

I thought this street name would be in the music district then but I don't believe that is the case here.

I like the idea of giving them names...are those alleyways then?

Nice lane name, I like it. The colourful art that is on the building in back is nice and stands out.

It is an interesting name.

Most of our lanes have names now. I noticed one a couple of days ago that had a local council name but at the bottom of the sign, it said "Private Lane". It was really a lane to access a building car park. That might be taking it too far.

Great shot with the red light and the colors behind.
