Game of Thrones wine is coming to Toronto

Game of Thrones wine is coming to Toronto because what else are you supposed to drink when you return to the Seven Kingdoms on July 16, when season seven finally premieres.

Things are heating up (well, cooling down) in Westeros and you'll soon be able to take it all in while sipping on three types of GoT wine from Bob Cabral and California’s Vintage Wine Estates, which will hit the LCBO this summer.

There will be a red blend ($29.95) that's supposed to represent the Targaryens, a Chardonnay ($29.95) tied to the Lannisters and their golden lion sigil, as well as a Cabernet Sauvignon ($74.95) for the Starks - they are the kings of the north, after all.

All three types of wine will be available for pre-order via the LCBO.com from June 7 to 21, while the red blend and Chardonnay will appear at select LCBOs starting on July 12. 


People want to rename part of the Danforth as The Danny

$

What's in a name? To those who live and work on the Danforth, the answer's a whole lot, especially since the Danforth Mosaic BIA, which represents 500 businesses between Jones and Westlake - want to nickname the area "The Danny."

BIA chair Billy Dertilis explains he and his team worked with landlords, business owners and residents to better define the neighbourhood's identity.

"When someone says, 'hey, let's go grab a bite to eat on the Danforth,' they're not talking about Danforth and Greenwood, they're talking about Danforth and Pape," says Dertilis, who grew up on the Danforth and now runs Red Rocket Coffee.

Some other suggestions were floated around, including Dan-E (for Danforth East, presumably), Midlands and the Upper East Side. 

Ultimately, The Danny won out and the BIA started putting up signage with the name about two months ago. 

"It sounds scrappy, it sounds young, it sounds up-and-coming and that is something that really defines who we are," says Dertilis.

Dertilis knows not everyone's a fan of this moniker - some, such as Edward Keenan in the Toronto Star - have called it contrived and inauthentic, but Dertilis stresses the name's not as important as what the BIA is trying to do to showcase the neighbourhood. 

Toronto ranked one of the most expensive cities for commuters

Toronto ranked one of the top 10 most expensive cities for commutes according to Mapping the World's Prices 2017, an annual report from  Deutsche Bank, which came out earlier this month.

The reports ranks 47 cities around the world on a variety of metrics, including monthly salary (Toronto ranked 21), the price of beer in a neighbourhood pub (23), and the price of a ticket to the movies (25).

Perhaps most problematically, we ranked number 10 on the monthly public transport ticket index, right behind Melbourne Australia, which isn't too surprising considering we have one of the most expensive public transit passes in the world. 

Topping this particular category was London, followed by Dublin, Auckland, New York City, and Tokyo. 

House of the week: 375 Ellis Park Road

Not every dream home is a full out mansion. Take, for instance, this ravine house beside High Park at 375 Ellis Park Road. Described by the realtor as a "modern treehouse," this place is nestled so deeply in the trees that such a description isn't even entirely over the top.

375 Ellis Park Road TorontoDesigned by Charles Gane Of Core Architects, it makes full use of its desirable location, situating rooms like the kitchen, dining room, living room, master bedroom, and en suite seemingly within the tree canopy. That's not to mention the multiple decks that scream urban oasis.

375 Ellis Park Road TorontoWhen you're not marvelling at the scenery out the windows, the generous use of wood throughout the house makes the space feel modern and homey all at once, while the limestone fireplace radiates subtle sophistication.

375 Ellis Park Road TorontoYou see, this house is so nice that even I sound like a real estate agent describing it!

Someone who loves natural settings but doesn't believe in cottages or country properties. Why leave the city when you have a perch like this?

375 Ellis Park Road TorontoMove On If

Your idea of a great view is a city skyline. As nice as the interior of this house is, you're paying at lest partially to overlook High Park. If the prospect of that doesn't sound amazing, there are other properties in this price range that surely will.

Weather in the Toronto yesterday ran the gamut from sunny and beautiful to dark and stormy outside.

After a brief afternoon downpour, the city was treated to a stunning sunset and a double rainbow, making conditions perfect for an after dinner stroll.

Later, however, the weather turned and we were pounded with a thunderstorm - though with all the lightening, it was still pretty beautiful.

According to Environment Canada, we could be in for a similar series of events today, so get your cameras ready.

Popular Beaches cafe plans to close due to rent increase

Some parts of the city are saturated with independent cafes, while in other neighbourhoods, it's difficult to find a good cup of coffee.

In the Beaches (or the Beach), one of the most popular spots for espresso-based beverages is Bud's Coffee Bar, which has been at 1934 Queen St. E., since 2014. However, according to the Toronto Star, the local favourite might be relocating soon due to a huge rent increase. 

Bud's rent, as the Star writes, is set to double from the current rate of $3,000 per month. This is reportedly a common trend in the Beaches right since lots of storefronts along Queen Street East are currently sitting empty.

It's a similar story on Queen Street West, where rising commercial rents are also pushing out small businesses leading to an increase in vacancies.

Road closures ramp up in Toronto this weekend in a major way. As the official start to summer nears, big outdoor events return to streets across the city. Much to the chagrin of drivers, two of Toronto's busiest highways will also be closed in the coming days.

That's right, both the Gardiner Expressway and the DVP will be off limits to car traffic this Sunday for the annual Becel Heart and Stroke Ride for Heart. They're joined by a slew of other streets playing host to festivals throughout the weekend.

Here's a breakdown of the major closures.

The Gardiner Expressway will be closed from Carlaw Avenue to the Humber Bridge, and the Don Valley Parkway will be closed from Highway 401 to the Gardiner Expressway, from 2 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 4 to accommodate the Ride for Heart event

Lake Shore Boulevard is an alternative route for motorists to use instead of the Gardiner Expressway. Alternative routes for the Don Valley Parkway are Leslie Street, Don Mills Road and Victoria Park Avenue. 

Dundas Street West, from Lansdowne Avenue to Ossington Avenue, will be closed in both directions from 8 a.m. on June 3 to 2 a.m. on June 4 for Dundas West Fest

Pape Avenue, from Mortimer Avenue to Gamble Avenue, will be closed in both directions on Saturday, June 3 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. for the Pape Village Summerfest

Broadview Avenue, from south of Queen Street East to the north side of the public lane, will be closed in both directions on Saturday, June 3 from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. for the Riverside Eats & Beats Streetfest

The Best Furniture Stores in Toronto

The best furniture stores in Toronto are well known by design lovers and showroom loiterers (me) alike. Though they tend to be sprawling warehouses just outside the downtown core, a few of these places approach furniture display boutique-style, smack in the middle of the city.

Here are the best furniture stores in Toronto.

3 - Stylegarage (Ossington)

This Ossington shop is a mecca for locally-designed, customizable furniture and fixtures. Its 8,400 square feet is home to sleek wood dining sets, sofas of every size, shape, and texture, and geometric side tables that could pass as abstract sculptures.
7 - Klaus by Nienkamper

This King East destination appears sleek and shiny before you set foot in the door. The windows are adorned with the most refined pieces, illuminated by the sparkliest lighting fixtures. The store claims to carry timeless classics, but I think their pieces are far too exciting to be sold short like that.
10 - CB2 Toronto

Crate & Barrel’s sister shop sits on the corner of Queen and Bathurst and is two storeys of sleek and chic condo furniture. Most items require assembly, so I always say it’s like Ikea but more expensive and everything comes in white marble print.
4 - Elte Market

This sprawling warehouse is home to high-end furniture, rugs, and lighting. A destination for any urban dweller, the Castlefield store has something for everyone looking to decorate a small space with high impact.
5 - Mjolk

This Junction shop combines Japanese and Scandinavian aesthetics for an ultra sophisticated selection of furniture and decor. Owned by devoted couple John and Juli, Mjolk is akin to a gallery full of high end, meticulously curated design work. Definitely a must-visit, even for a little look-see.
6 - Shelter Furniture

This Castlefied Design District store is a massive, brightly lit warehouse of modern furniture. Their greatest feat (save for the sheer variety of goods) is their ability to offer everything in a set; perfect for the furniture lover that wants everything to match.
11 - EQ3 (Liberty Village)

This chain is a go-to for the patriotic Canadian. With a chock full of Made in Canada pieces, the furniture chain has locations in Liberty Village and King East—easy access for any downtowner. Find budget-conscious house brand items as well as Herman Miller classics here.
8 - Avenue Road

This high end furniture store on Eastern Avenue is three storeys of exquisite contemporary goodness. The industrial standalone building peddles things like iconic seating by the likes of Oscar Niemeyer and textiles from Kvadrat’s Raf Simons collaboration.
9 - Pavilion

This lower level shop tucked away on Gladstone Avenue showcases a cool collection of modern sofas, tables, art, and accessories. Mid-century inspired furniture is aplenty here—plus, their clearance section is A+.

Off-The-Island Lady Beer Fest (July 8 @ Henderson Brewing Co)
Fear not ladies who love to drink! This beer festival also features ciders. There are two sessions throughout the day, local food vendors, an arts market and music.

Sample over 60 different ciders from Canada and around the world in a super relaxed environment.

Rental of the week: 165 Bathurst Street

The term "studio apartment" tends to be abused on apartment listing sites. Pretty much any unit without a bedroom gets this description, when in fact a studio should infer ample space to establish a live/work setup.

165 Bathurst Street TorontoThis apartment near Queen and Bathurst doesn't suffer from misidentification: it's a sizeable warehouse space with separate kitchen area that could double as a residence and work studio thanks to its tall ceilings and open layout.

165 Bathurst Street TorontoOf course, it doesn't come cheap. Both the location and the size contribute to a listing price that will surely drive away many people in the market for a studio space. Still, you get the sense that someone will be drawn in by the exposed wood ceilings, modern kitchen and loft sensibility.

CN Tower to host huge fireworks show on Canada Day

Canada's sesquicentennial is kind of a big deal. So to celebrate here in Toronto, the country's tallest freestanding structure will host a huge fireworks show that'll light up the sky on July 1.

Fireworks erupted from the CN Tower during the Pan Am Games' opening ceremony in July 2015, and Toronto hasn't seen a light show of that caliber since.

On July 1, the fireworks are slated to kick off at 10:30 p.m. and the whole spectacle will be set to a soundtrack playing on the radio station Boom 97.3

Be sure to tune in and look up on Canada Day.

If you gotta back to Hogwarts, you might want to check out Toronto's unofficial Harry Potter bar, The Lockhart, this weekend because it's transforming its patio into a magical castle on Saturday, June 3 in honour of Dundas West Fest.

The popular street festival, which runs between Ossington and Landsdowne, will see restaurants throughout this neighbourhood extending their patios onto the street.

For the first time in five years, the festival will run until midnight with a bona fide street party featuring music, food, and buskers.

The Lockhart's Matt Laking, who's also on the board of the Dundas West BIA (which is organizing the event with the Little Portugal BIA) says lineups are expected at Pavao Meats' BBQ, the longest grill in the festival's five year history.

Toronto Islands now closed until at least August

The Toronto Islands haven't had it easy this spring after rising water levels in Lake Ontario led to widespread flooding.

Earlier this month, the city of Toronto announced it would be cancelling permits for events and activities at the Toronto Island Park until June 30, but today, it extended that cancellation period to July 31.

According to a city news release, more than 300 permits, as well as 350 summer camp registrants, have been affected.

Ferry service is still restricted to residents and essential personnel as 40-50 per cent of the Islands remain under water. Until now, local businesses have been trying to stay afloat, but the popular Rectory Cafe announced it'd be shutting down after Thanksgiving. 

Hopefully we'll be able to get across before then.

A former incinerator and waste transfer station might not sound like a sought-after venue, but once the heritage-designated Art Deco building at 150 Symes Rd., (which dates back to 1934) gets a makeover, it'll bring a huge event space to the Junction.

The Symes, located at 150 Symes Rd., is getting a makeover thanks to business partners Viviana Kohon, Namita Tandon-Walsh and Caitie Yue.

A post shared by The Symes (@thesymesca) on

"It’s a restoration project, more than a building project," says Kohon of the ongoing construction work- led by Ledd Jones Architect Ltd. and Barbara Nelson Interior Design - that'll revamp the space, which sat untouched for years.

The goal is to keep some of the original architectural features intact.

The venue will include two floors and will have a combined capacity for nearly 600 guests. It'll share the building with Junction Craft Brewing when it opens under the same roof this fall.

10 Toronto intersections as they were in the 1990s

The Toronto of the 1990s doesn't seem like such a distant place at first thought, but the more you consider the sweeping changes the city has undergone over the last three decades, the more it seems bizarre that there were so few condos and so many undeveloped industrial sites

This is a Toronto I remember so well. There was an unfinished feel it. You could ride a bike around places like Liberty Village, the Eastern Waterfront, and the Junction and feel like time moved very slowly.

Here's a look back at Toronto intersections before the ubiquity of condo podiums, big box retail, and the near-total elimination of our inner city industry.

Queen and Spadina

toronto 1990s

Yes, there were still PCC streetcars in service on Toronto streets in the 1990s. Here we're looking east along a much quieter Queen Street at Spadina Avenue (photo by David Wilson). Here's what the view looks like today.

Queen and Bathurst

toronto 1990s

Oh, the Big Bop. Before it was a furniture store targeted towards condo owners, this building at the southeast corner of Queen and Bathurst was a raucous live music venue. Here's the current view

Yonge and Davenport/Church

toronto 1990s

The view up Yonge Street at Church/Davenport hasn't changed that much — yet. Here's what it looks like today

Trinity and Mill

toronto 1990s

Before the Distillery District was born, the old Gooderham & Worts site was used regularly as a film set. 

King and Strachan

toronto 1990s

See that old warehouse-style building on the right side of the frame? That's been replaced by a modern glass building and the vista in the distance is starting to fill with condos. Present day view here.

East Liberty and Lynn Williams

Toronto 1990s

Neither of these streets existed in the 1990s, when Liberty Village was still somewhat industrial and only starting to draw in production companies. This is the view today

Parliament and Front

toronto 1990s

The old Consumers Gas Building at Front and Parliaments streets looked ready for the wrecking ball until it was restored as a Police Station. Here's what it looks like today

King and Bay

toronto 1990s

This view of the Financial District at King and Bay streets doesn't look that different, but where's all the traffic (photo by David Wilson)? Present day view here.

Yonge and Balmoral

Yonge and Queens Quay

Look at that! Not only does Captain John's look pretty good in this photo at Yonge Street and Queens Quay, but there's not a condo in sight. This is what it looks like now (RIP CJ's).
