Toronto Old Town Photo Gallery
The Town of York is Toronto's birthplace. Located east of Yonge Street, it is now a mix of historic buildings and modern residences, all well-connected by streetcar to the financial core. St. James Cathedral is an Anglican church that once guided ships into the harbour, but now sits surrounded by taller buildings.
