Discovering Toronto With Transit

Eglinton Avenue is an unique street.

It is the ONLY street that goes through Etobicoke, York, North York, Toronto, East York and Scarborough.
From the 427 to it’s eastern end at Kingston Road it is 39 kilometres. According to Google Maps, it would take 6 hours and 40 minutes to walk. I would die by Martin Grove Road (2.1 km to the east of 427/Eglinton).

I caught up George in the middle section, he started at Bayview and went up to Kennedy.

The thing is that I wasn’t sure what part of Eglinton he would be at. Discovering Toronto With Transit HQ is at Lawrence/Kingston/Morningside area. This is a hint for all candidates to start putting more of their canvas schedules on their websites. People can interact with them instead of travelling across the city to their campaign offices.

So I was on the 34 Eglinton bus and I found them just west of Victoria Park Avenue, I got out at Sloane Avenue, hopped on the eastbound 34 bus and got out at Victoria Park. That is the border with Scarborough by the way.

They talked to people in the area. George got interviewed by a local media crew and finally they had lunch. I left to get back to the office to charge my batteries (phone and camera) and had lunch, the end.

Here are 8 photos of when they crossed Victoria Park Avenue into Scarborough.
