What Toronto street is this?

[Peepers]

First hint on what the above street is named:

Which local DJ once had both a CKLN radio show and an Eye Weekly column?

Is this Benson Ave between Ruston Rd and Arlington Ave ?

Bloor Street, West of Keele. I love this stretch... especially the condo project on the south side at the bottom of the hill.

 

[urbandreamer]

Yeah, today Bloor West Village was packed with ppl, and the buds on the trees in high park are out, making me hopeful for an early appearance of leaves this year. Re: Context's condo here, I wish it was red brick instead of the dreary beige'n precast....

Here's another one I took yesterday:

Imho, the above street has massive potential to become a future medium dense "avenue."

A closer look at the church (just south of the 401 btw.)

 

[casaguy]

You're right UD.

I'm probably wrong, but your shot reminds me of driving south on the West Mall.

 

[urbandreamer]

Not the west mall.

 

[adma]
