My husband and I were just in Toronto in May — our first time — and we both loved the Bohemian flavor of Queen St West, but we also noticed the condos going up. Seems to us that you'll end up with a fake Boho district when all that's done, which is kind of sad. We hope that the independent artists find a new area for themselves. Adds so much character to any city. <br /><br />It looks like you've been photo blogging for quite some time, but I'd like to welcome you to the CDP community!Hildahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572824685124656116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669721126705732069.post-72266525800464126262010-09-26T15:36:24.857-04:002010-09-26T15:36:24.857-04:00Shirley: There isn't really a whole area but m...Shirley: There isn't really a whole area but most artists live downtown in the older parts of town but spread out from one end to the other. Queen St probably has the most galleries and small quirky restaurants although as the rents go up the galleries are starting to move a bit north by a few blocks.RedPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06980471119229896414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669721126705732069.post-73598050992709992252010-09-25T17:03:55.986-04:002010-09-25T17:03:55.986-04:00A building with a difference.A building with a difference.Stefan Janssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542072508543147268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669721126705732069.post-51320789704208370092010-09-25T15:04:36.520-04:002010-09-25T15:04:36.520-04:00What an interesting building!
