Where are the most obscure laneways?
There's a laneway (Glen Baillie Place) between the stores in Chinatown on the west side of Spadina just north of Dundas. It looks like a regular lane but when you walk down it you run into about a dozen houses and it looks like a regular street.
Have you ever been on one of Graeme Perry's "Laneway Bike Tours"?

He certainly knows a few interesting places. My wife and I did his Junction tour last year.
Glasgow Street was the site of that popular Nuit Blanche dumpster hotel a couple of years ago.
But neither Glen Baillie Place nor Glasgow are particularly obscure. What I'm suggesting we seek out are the unnamed lanes and alleys inserted between homes - unpaved maybe, little known even to many local residents, and certainly not part of bicycle tours that get covered in the media.
