• It offers panoramic views of:
  • the downtown Toronto skyline (CN Tower, financial district)  
  • the Don Valley and Don Valley Parkway below  
  • Evergreen Brick Works visible to the right when looking west  
  • The Prince Edward Viaduct / Bloor Viaduct across the valley.  

Tips for Visiting

If you’re planning to go, here are some tips to make the most of it:

• Go during daylight / sunset rather than late at night — better views + safer.
• Bring a camera if you like cityscape photography. Early evening (blue hour / sunset) gives great light.
• Respect that it’s a residential area: keep noise down, no littering.
• Wear something warm / wind-proof if you’re there after dark because of exposure.
• Parking might be limited; street parking only.
