Open Streets TO

Posted on by David Barker

Open Streets TO made its first appearance in Toronto on Sunday (Aug. 17, 2014) and will come back again on Aug 31st. Bloor St. from Parliament to Spadina, and Yonge St. from Bloor to Queen are closed to vehicles so that people can enjoy the streets in a safe & healthy environment. There are no outside vendors, so you get to enjoy whatever shops happen to be along the way.
