Doors Open – 10th Anniversary Edition

Posted By swoononeone On May 23, 2009 @ 9:36 am In Events, TTC, information, interesting, tourism | Comments Disabled

This weekend is a mini celebration of Toronto itself and it’s called Doors Open ^[1]. You can take in 175 buildings of architectural, historic, cultural and/or social significance as they open their doors to the public for free. The Toronto Star’s coverage ^[2] is a good place to start planning your trip. The scope of this event gets bigger and better every year. It’s great way to learn about what’s right there in your backyard. Buildings with a green roof ^[3], Toronto’s first post office ^[4], the old floor of the Toronto Stock Exchange ^[5] and many more.

A TTC day pass ^[6] will also com in handy. The TTC is often the best way to get from venue to venue (sometimes it’s a destination like Saturday’s TTC Eglinton Garage/Division tour).
