YongeAndQueensQuay

---

The foot of Toronto and the end of the longest road in North America. In fact on the sidewalk just SE gives distances to towns near and far and more info on Yonge (loops right around to Thunder Bay). Just south of this is Captain John's restaurant on a converted fishing vessel. Street musicians sometimes play here. Tall ships also go on lake cruises from the docks SE at the foot of the parking lots. Just SW is the Westin Harbour castle hotel (see BayAndQueensQuayWest) also a high speed ferry that goes to St. Catherines near Niagara-on-the-lake and the US side of Lake Ontario).

NE is the Toronto Star building (Hemmingway used to work at the Star but it was on King's street in those days. They sent him all over the world which allowed him to write and become famous). Once a year there is a book sale on the ground floor. On the 4th floor is a staff cafeteria nice views of the lake and economical prices.

NW is the "World Trade Centre" but unlike the ones in NY these are just residential (nice indoor and outdoor pools in the section between but only available to tenants). An interesting large metal sculpture at the intersection and waterfall at the back. The Kitchen Table is an upscale convenience store used to be called "Franklin Jays" which had nice Apple Cider but no more still all kinds of food, fruit, cosmetics etc are offered. There is a sports bar on the north side of the building facing Yonge.
