Cherry Beach is Changing Ugh

It’s in my ‘Top 3 Favourite Places in Toronto’.

It’s all over all my blogs. I used to drive it 5 times a week for years.  I fit a profile one time.

Look up. Dramatically.

It’s Toronto’s old power plant.

1 – 2nd tallest structure in Toronto
2 – Toronto’s old power plant, abandoned for years, recently purchased by… a movie studio
3 – There’s a falcon couple nested there, one of Canada’s most protected species ($millions). Until the falcons raise their babies and leave, the studio cannot start construction.

I explorered it years ago, here’s a look inside.

I used to photograph “Car of the Week” here all the time, until it started to feel lazy, even though look, so beautiful.

A couple summers ago, my thing was running in the bushes along the water. So fun, because you never knew what you’d find around each corner. A big wink that goes with that last line ;)

It’s on one of my business cards.

If I was handed a bunch of money with which to buy real estate,

I’d buy it in Cherry Beach.

Construction and change has started here, and I think the city is creeping into Cherry Beach, taking away it’s secret-ness.  I’ll miss you Cherry Beach.

Love,
Keri
