Toronto, Downtown - Canada HD Travel Channel

Toronto is Canada's largest city, with 5.2 million people in the metropolitan area. Directly located on Lake Ontario, Toronto is well connected with the near U.S. metropolises. It is the economic artery of the country and the capital of the province of Ontario.
Next to the CN Tower is an old ring roundhouses, waiting for a new use. CN stands for Canadian National, and is Canada's largest railway company based in Montreal.
A Deep Lake Water Cooling system supplies cooling for many of the glazed buildings of Toronto. Thus the demand of electricity for the air conditioning is reduced by 75%.
We arrive at the Union Station with its famous terminal building.
On our way towards the north, we watch the hustle and bustle on the Bay Street and let the architecture of the Finance District affect us. In Toronto, you can get around easily by foot - even at night.
The Younge Street, a main north - south axis across the city, is full of theaters, music halls and opportunities to dive into nightlife.
East of Downtown Toronto, we cross the University Avenue, at which the old and new architecture are mixed harmoniously. We pass the Osgoode Hall, in its classic Victorian style. Today, it is the Court of Appeal for Ontario and the Law Society of Upper Canada.
After a few steps, we enter the Peace Garden, opened in 1984 by Queen Elizabeth II. This place is dominated by the new Town Hall with its two semicircular towers. At the eastern end of the square is the old town hall, neo-Gothic like the Parliament building, early design of an independent national Canadian architecture.
Bagpipers belong to the streetscape in Canada, not only in Toronto.
The Royal Ontario Museum, briefly called ROM, one of the largest museums in the world, was rebuilt at the time of our shooting. Daniel Libeskind covers the building with a facade of bizarre polygons. Next to the Sharp Centre for Design, a new hallmark for Canada's innovative architecture is set, showing that almost everything is possible.
The Bloor Street, a main artery from east to west, with lots of restaurants and shops, is an example of creative coexistence of old and new designs without fear of contact.

Toronto ist größte Stadt Kanadas, mit 5,2 Millionen Menschen im Großraum. Direkt am Ontariosee gelegen ist Toronto mit den nahen Metropolen der USA verkehrsmäßig gut verbunden. Es ist die wirtschaftliche Pulsader des Landes und die Hauptstadt der Provinz Ontario.
Neben dem CN Tower steht ein alter Ringlokomotivschuppen, der noch auf eine neue Verwendung wartet, CN steht für Canadian National und ist Kanadas größte Eisenbahngesellschaft mit Sitz in Montreal.
Viele der verglasten Gebäude Torontos werden durch das Deep Lake Water Cooling System mit Kälte versorgt. Dadurch wird der Strombedarf für die Klimaanlagen um 75% reduziert.
Wir erreichen die Union Station mit ihrer berühmten Abfertigungshalle.
Weiter in Richtung Norden, beobachten wir das Treiben auf der Bay Street und lassen die Architektur des Finance District auf uns wirken. In Toronto kann man sich ohne Probleme zu Fuß fortbewegen -- auch nachts.
Die Younge Street wichtigste Nord -- Süd-Achse quer durch die Stadt ist reich an Theatern, Music-Halls und Gelegenheiten, sich ins Nachtleben zu stürzen.
Östlich der Downtown Toronto überqueren wir die University Avenue, an der sich alte und neue Architektur harmonisch vermischen. Vorbei an der Osgoode Hall, in klassischem viktorianischem Stil. Heute ist sie das Berufungsgericht der Provinz Ontario und die Rechtsanwaltskammer von Upper Canada.
Nach wenigen Schritten betritt man den Friedensgarten, eröffnet 1984 von Queen Elizabeth II. Dieser Platz wird überragt vom neuen Rathaus mit seinen beiden halbrunden Türmen. Am östlichen Ende des Platzes befindet sich das alte Rathaus, neugotisch wie das Parlamentsgebäude, früher Entwurf einer eigenständigen nationalen kanadischen Architektur.
Dudelsackpfeifer gehören in Kanada zum Straßenbild, nicht nur in Toronto.
Das Royal Ontario Museum, kurz ROM genannt, eines der größten Museen der Welt, wurde zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahmen umgebaut. Daniel Libeskind überzieht das Gebäude mit einer Fassade aus bizarren Polygonen. Neben dem Sharp Centre for Design wird hier ein neues Zeichen für Kanadas innovative Architektur gesetzt, in der fast alles möglich ist.
Die Bloor Street, eine Hauptader von Ost nach West, mit jeder Menge Restaurants und Läden ist ein Beispiel für kreatives Nebeneinander alter und neuer Bauformen ohne Berührungsängste.

Toronto is very historic, it was once the capital city of Canada before Queen Victoria formed a consolidated Canadian capital in Ottawa. Toronto was once called York, also Niagara on the Lake. European flavour, combined with a modern North American outlook, Toronto is a fast growing Global city, and home to more than 140 nationalities, one of the highest in the world. Toronto's current metropolitan population now sits at nearly 6 million, and is a sister city of Chicago, Illinois.

The new city hall was featured briefly in one episode of the original Star Trek and, I believe, once in STNG. Don't now why, seemed it looked "futuristic".
