Toronto is so clean. I live in this area. We take it for granted then I watch your videos and it's like a seeing it for the first time.

[@sv8700]

Wow how Toronto has changed since the 80's and 90's. Just around 4900 Federal Building, there used be V&A (Victoria & Albert Pub) a great waterhole!

[@canman5060]

Indeed.

[@TorontoModifiedKarKlub]

Oh yes the V & A spent many nights the after working 4-12 at Maclean Hunter

[@talon1706]

I worked at North Town Ford just south of Finch, west side of Yonge back in the late 70's. Nothing looks familiar now. Condo jungle.

Good morning Johnny! Thanks for the great walk along Yonge St from Finch station to Sheppard-Yonge station. I remember I met you at the bus bay platforms at Finch station a few weeks ago towards the end of your livestream when you reached 95K subs! Have a great Thursday everyone!!

North York Centre Station opened in 1985. It was almost complete when I first arrived in Canada in 1984.

[@TorontoModifiedKarKlub]

Wow I grew up in that area in the 1970s to the early 90s I hardly recognize it. it was a great area as a kid to grow up in

[@canman5060]

The tallest building was the Red Federal Building at Sheppard when I first arrived in 1984.

Where is the entertainment?All that is there NOW Are oriental eateries?Where are Canadian full service 24 hr restaurants That we had in the Yonge and Sheppard area 45 years ago?Where you could eat breakfast lunch dinner and drinks and make a decent dollarOh and dessert's too😮White food!

[@EmperorBeef]

There's plenty of entertainment on this strip. Bars, pool halls, karaoke, and yes "oriental" restaurants, many open late or 24 hours. I'm not sure what more you could ask for, unless it's purely the "oriental" part you take issue with 🤔
