Excerpt from Of Toronto the Good
It has some of the handsomest streets on the continent, and is really well laid out. Jarvis street with its elegant pavement is in summer a most attractive thoroughfare, and the same may be said or Bloor, Sherbourne and Spadina, but the extreme east end, and the west end east of Parkdale are the abode of poverty to a very great extent, and are commensurately less desirable.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Toronto, a burgeoning city of the late 19th century, is observed in this historical account that explores its ever-changing landscape, the vibrant pulse of its inhabitants, and the social forces that shaped its identity. The cityâs endeavors to balance the demands of a burgeoning population, social stability, and relentless real estate speculation are brought to light. Amidst the rush towards modernization, the author captures the tension between progress and preservation, as parks and green spaces struggle to survive the relentless march of development. The cityâs commitment to social welfare is contrasted with the rise of fear and moral policing, as evidenced in the debates over public spaces, alcohol consumption, and the evolving role of the police force. This book offers a rich tapestry of Toronto's past, a city grappling with the challenges of growth while striving to maintain its unique character and build a just and equitable society.
