It's good to see you again Johnny as always I enjoy your videos 📹 It's like I'm there walking 🚶♂️with you my Brother stay hydrated and be safe shout out from Lake Charles Louisiana 🙂👍
Nice walk. My office is at Yonge & Empress. Amazing how it's changed over the years & particularly in the last 2.5 years. Now working from home - don't miss the commute but I do miss the neighborhood!
Great walk tour along Yonge street in the North York area Johnny! The sky view is just amazing! My uncle lives around this neighbourhood. Hope you enjoy your day😎👍.
It is so wonderful weather to walk!! Streets are so neat and nice!! People look relaxed!! Thank you for sharing this my new friend!! Greeting from Korea!!😍😍👍
I was just in this area couple days ago thinking it's crazy how much it's changed. In just like 5 years i swear the only things still there are the mammas pizza and the coffee time at yonge/drewry
Glad to see you didn't cross with the pedestrian red light or with the countdown already started. You see people jaywalking absorbed in their phones all the time.
Love it when you get back in my old neighborhood where I grew up John, that little old building that is on the north east corner of Empress and Yonge Street used to be a police station more than 60 years ago. What a lot of memories. Thank you buddy. 😎🙏👍P.S has the Younge subway been stretched into Thornhill yet?
So Re-Imagine Yonge has been approved? Great. There's really no reason for so many cars here since there's a subway running underneath Yonge and Sheppard. Sheppard can really use separated bike lanes too. Or at least a red Bus/ Bike lane.
@@jessicayoung1190 The Sheppard line is underused. I've seen it in rush hour. Too many places you'd like to park but can't during rush hour, like Bayview Village and Fairview Mall. More surface bus services should help those who live between stations. That's why surface light rail could be so much better than subways. More stations and stops that are cheaper to build than each station.
Toronto is a nightmare to drive in. Every street is construction and they keep throwing up endless condos and high rises. I'm so glad I left it was just to bust and to crowded. I don't know how construction workers do it.
Bike lanes would ruin the neighbourhood how? They'll be protected and 2 lanes of traffic are going to disappear. It's absurd that a major transit corridor has 3 lanes of traffic in each way and no bike infrastructure. The city is doing the right thing to make the neighbourhood more livable and pedestrian/bike friendly.
@@JohnnyStrides I agree, Beecroft and Doris are heavily underused, most cars just like to drive down Yonge to sight see. Car traffic wont be affected negatively that much
I like this area. If I was young enough to move back to TO this could be it.
What a beautiful day!

Thank you so much Johnny for taking me back to the streets of Toronto.

Wonderful vedio and familiar place.

If I run into you I'm gonna say "Hey aren't you Jimmy Strolls?"
You will know it's me LOL
Haha, my neighborhood. Go to the gym there every week. Only been here a year or so now but I love it way more than Scarborough
My old stomping grounds ♥
Shhhh I’m at work but watching lol

Not yet but that's coming!
Nice video
I remember getting lost while trying to find parking when I was visiting Toronto and ending up there
Just park at Finch, get on the subway, easy as that :)

Not everyone live on Sheppard can use line4 subway . It's a long walk to the subway station if you live in a single home division .

13:42 and 14:14. Notice how much real estate two cars and a motorcycle need to park in comparison to three bicycles.
Looks like Long Island CITY IN QUEENS, NY【◕ ͜つ◕】
Bike lanes would ruin this neighborhood.... Traffic is dangerous enough already
