Toronto's Wandering Shoreline

Great to find a Youtube channel that covers Toronto history. Oddly enough I have seen some of the city's history on other channels like the History Guy and .I found out. I am a seasonal resident on Center Island living on a boat at the marina. I got interested in the history of the marina itself but could not find anything online. But I discovered that the City's website has a page with aerial photographs of the city from 1942 till the 1990's. It shows the progression of the 10 years it took to build the Toronto Island Marina. It was one of several centenary projects. Centerville amusement park was also another centenary project opening in 1967 with the marina. Maybe you could do some stories on what other centenary projects in Toronto.

Just found your channel recently… great videos, thanks! 🙏 Going to Toronto for first time ever in a couple weeks, and your videos are so much better than the standard tourism videos. Much more interesting than those, and were learning a lot about the lay of the land and the history! 👏 👏 👏

love your videos! Would love an episode on the Leslie Street Spit/Tommy Thompson Park 🙏

They have some markers on the ground in the distillary district where the shoreline used to be!

Good set of videos, I look forward to them, Thanks! - Oh and I don't mind the musical interludes at all.

Loving these videos!

Wow, your video progression in just the last year is amazing, but these early videos are gems too! Just found it, but I love your channel!

Love the videos

I grew up in this city- --in cabbage town. In the 50ies/60ies lake Ontario was our garbage dump. Before Leslie fill.

Likely some American (or Americans) involved in the misspelling of harbour!

comedy gold! lol! but excellent info.

Congratulations, you made it up the Baldwin Steps. You get a note from the mayor.😊

I believe the Harbour Commission building was designed by an American and the spelling mistake was made by him.

So, what does it say about Toronto that it keeps pushing it's shoreline? Is it a smart way to create the useful space we need with our trash, or is this as bad as other urban sprawl? Or is there some other motivation going on here that I'm missing?

...but do you go to your courses, rain or shine?

That idiot must be stalking you, he keeps getting into every one of your shots! :)

I never knew that those steps had a name. don't ask me why, because I can't supply an answer

I highly recommend changing your music. It feels like I’m watching the movie Napoleon dynamite. But nice job providing information!

Designed by an American

Please stop calling yourself an iddy it, and change or eliminate the awful "music" instead. Peace!
