Morning
Start at Commerce Court North (see Commerce Court North) to admire the stunning lobby. Walk west to Bay St and the TD Centre, noting the Wall and Chairs sculpture in the plaza (see Wall and Chairs) and Joe Fafard’s life-sized bronze cows lounging on the lawn behind 77 King St W.
Just around the corner at 234 Bay St is the Design Exchange (see Design Exchange). Explore it for an hour before enjoying a pan-Asian lunch at Kubo DX, on the first floor.
Afternoon
Zigzag your way to Simcoe Park, on Front St west of Wellington, and the luminous Anish Kapoor sculpture. A monument beside it honors city founders. Continue west along Front, past the CBC at No. 250, noting the Glenn Gould sculpture, in memory of the eccentric pianist. You’ll soon come to Sky-Dome, and The Audience, Michael Snow’s larger-than-life fans (see The Audience).
Turn left on Spadina Ave; crossing the bridge, look to your left to see Eldon Garnet’s memorial commemorating Chinese laborers who helped build Canada’s railroad. It’s five minutes to the lake and, just west on Queens Quay, Toronto Music Garden, in bloom spring to fall. Wander this oasis for an hour, then walk 15 minutes east to York Quay Centre to watch artisans at work and stroll the Photo Passage.
End the day with a steak dinner at Harbour Sixty (60 Harbour St), in the opulent former Harbour Commission building.
