Location
The south crosswalk of the Royal York and Allanhurst intersection in Etobicoke.
Participants
Plans
I saw that this was doable in the morning. I asked if any coworkers wanted to spend their Friday evening going an hour out of their way to cross a street. The mumbled something non-committal and then changed the subject, so I went alone.
Expedition
I took the subway to Royal York station, and then the bus north. Royal York buses don't stop at the station. It's unclear if that's a temporary thing or if there's just no bus bay there. Either way, it was a little confusing as to what I was supposed to do. After a while, a bus showed up, which made it less confusing.
Royal York goes through a relatively hilly suburban area, with houses that were a bit larger than I am used to seeing in Toronto. The hashpoint itself was in the middle of a crosswalk, near a park. I snapped some pictures, crossed the street (so I could be sure I reached the hashpoint), and headed up to nearby Eglinton Avenue. I took the Eglinton West bus to Eglinton West station, which was overall a less direct route than simply returning on the Royal York bus, but took me past some Line 5 construction sites which I was interested in seeing.
