However you say it
– Tor-AWN-toe, Toronno, Toranna or just T.O. – Canada’s largest city can be
your “kind of town.”
“It continues to
evolve with city changes, restaurants, exhibits and fall-focused experiences,”
says Irene Knight of Tourism Toronto.
She checks in with
an extensive list of what’s new and happening in the big city.

New and improved
- The
CN Tower, Toronto’s iconic landmark, has a renovated main observation area,
LookOut Level, for an “eye-opening, mind-blowing new perspective on the most
spectacular views in Toronto.”
In the $16-million upgrade, there’s a new glass floor directly above the
original, providing a dramatic, two-tier vertical view.
Floor-to-ceiling “window walls” across three sections of the observation
level allow for near-seamless unobstructed panoramic views.
- Ontario
Place continues expanding with new park areas,
restaurants and movie screenings at the world’s first permanent IMAX Theatre.
There’s the remounting of the Winter Lights Exhibition uutilizing creativity, innovation, light and
discovery.
- Storm Crow Manor is a Victorian
mansion in the Church-Wellesley village that will play host to Toronto’s
nerdiest sports bar.
When the Storm Crow Tavern opened in Vancouver in 2012 it was quickly called
the “nerdiest bar in Canada.”
