Walking in Place
RE-RELEASE: St.Lawrence/Old Toronto
Let's stroll through Old Toronto! We'll talk about the landmarks you know and some you don't. We'll stop at the St. Lawrence Market if you're feeling hungry, and explore some side streets to avoid the crowds. Also: we'll talk about a secret tunnel!
CORRECTION: I mispronounced Samuel Ringgold Ward's name in this episode, saying "Wald" instead of "Ward".
Originally released February 3, 2021.
