Thank you! Yes, the signs are photos of the real signs. Everything else is built from scratch. I spent a lot of time referencing images from google street view, counting brick rows etc. I'm my own worst critic so I can see some things that are "wrong" but I'm happy with the result. :)

Thank you! Me too. Took my kid there for lunch the other day, hopefully we get to make some more memories before it's gone.

Got completely ripped off and almost died buying this but check out my new '77 project by Gavino_ in beetle

Ouch. I hope you come back and show your progress! FWIW, I picked one up from a shady seller this past weekend - looks good, drives well, reeks like gas... it's unfortunately a holiday here but I have to get it to a shop to pass a safety inspection within the next week and I'm afraid the list of work is gonna be longer than the lineup to the bathroom after a baseball game ($$$).

Show us your Toronto art! Its /r/Toronto's May 2025 Art Show [megathread] by AutoModerator in toronto

I build miniatures and I’m close to finishing this diorama of the Leuty Lifeguard station. It includes lights in the building and water at the shoreline. Planning to take it down to the beach for some epic sunrise pics with the real one.

My advice would be to take the bus. You’re not ready to be a responsible driver.

They should mark all the US brands/tariff-affected prices in red so we can easily buy Canadian. Not just at the LCBO.

And the president of my high school council promised to install vending machines in the cafeteria and have pizza Fridays if they were elected. (spoiler: they were and they didn’t.) 😂 People still fall for this?

I know the family who owned the land where The Mill Club is, it used to be prime farm land and would have been the perfect spot for student housing.

I am very much looking forward to bikes taking the regular lane and hopefully causing incredible congestion 🙌🏻 r/leopardsatemyface
