À propos

We begin this walk just to the west of the original Town of York. Here, we’ll explore the site of York’s original bustling market that continues to thrive today. On our walk we’ll encounter iconic and historic buildings such as the elegant Flatiron Building, the Royal York Hotel, spacious theatres, the breathtaking Galleria & more. 

One of the city’s earliest thoroughfares, the landscape of Front St. East has undergone many changes over the years. On our walk, we’ll see an examine these changes, including the new North Market building at St. Lawrence Market, and the renovation and restoration of Union Station and other buildings. Also on our walk, we’ll take in modern buildings, spaces, and sculptures that add even more to the story of this historic and vibrant street.
