You do a great job, very professional. Not coughing, sniffing or talking out of breath, very rare. Enjoyed it.
I watch Johnny to learn interesting facts about places i drive past everyday
.in the 60S ii worked at the Canadian Red Cross Headquarters, Jarvis and wellesley, gone now and my husbaned worked at Jarvis Coll. across the street, nearly every payday we ate lunch at Julies or Bamboo House. great time
Absolutely beautiful sharing adventure walk away tour .. thanks from Montreal QC
I sure did enjoy it! Thanks for sharing so much interesting historical information along the way. I don't know that I'd call Jarvis the ugliest street in downtown, but I would definitely agree that it seems to lack cohesion.
8:49 "It's amazing what passes off as art these days"
Jarvis, University, and Spadina were once broad, tree-lined avenues. Then, all three were turned into pure asphalt car sewers -- Spadina was more useful to the local population than the others because, uniquely, it had no major roadway dumping traffic into its northern maw. The Spadina Expressway (now, the Alien Road), was designed to "fix" that and make it just like the other two.
I worked in the Jarvis St. Sears Head Office Building - in the Furniture Buying department and then up in Catalogue Copywriting - 1978 into the early 80s. I met my husband there.
Hey Johnny, my 5 seconds of fame has arrived. I unexpectedly made an appearance in your video at the 21:17 mark. I am the guy crossing the street in the red hat. I have been watching your videos since the start of the pandemic (2020). I was crossing the street and first noticed the “yellow toque”, then the camera and then I recognized it was you. 😂
Fond memories though, home of our office for the Ontaro (Lawn) Tennis Association at 559 (Sport Ontario) and the original Head Office of Pizza Pizza. Can't forget the Keg Mansion at 515!
or former Poilce Headquarters at 590 Jarvis
Up to now, only a small amount of snow!
Lived at the X Condo on Jarvis and Charles from 2010-2018, thanks for taking us down this way. Looks like not too much has changed.
Also the original CBC Radio Building at 354, near the National Ballet School at 400.
Geez Johnny, if I was in the neighborhood of St Lawrence market and wanted to eat, I would have headed straight into the market to the Carousel bakery on the upper level, or possibly one of the smaller vendors inside.👍
I may be wrong, but believe those missing trees on Bloor E at Yonge had to be removed when there were regular protests happening there a month or so ago (and still some weekends now) - the Israeli Consulate is in that building.
Not sure if they were removed due to damage, or to prevent people from climbing them.
It’s all about survival on Jarvis.
I keep wondering how future generations will be even able to afford housing or anything lol.
RCMP 'O' Division HQ first, then the Grand Hotel following.
Great walking video Johnny
Lawrence Love Hotel, perhaps inspired by the Japanese love hotels?😆
Nice video. Some sections are ugly, but some beautiful architecture on this street. How about walk down the prettiest street in the city. ( In your opinion.)
That’s not as ugly as you labelled it, but the roads are too wide and so are the sidewalks - especially for the lack of foot traffic. Thanks for sharing! Enjoyed this walk - you’re a great historian and travel guide. Cheers!
Jarvis was a dirty street 20 yrs ago and by the looks of it, it hasnt changed
Great job 👍 New Year 🎉 Eve it didn't shut down like in 2022/23.
Good morning
good morning everyone
Did anybody else besides me do time at 311 Jarvis Street in their youth?
Nice post
idk but in 2024 asking for a smoke not cool. Perfect time for that guy to quite.
Maybe back in the 80 it was alot of prositution and drug selling on that street and some home for runaway teenager that why their call it ugly street !!
Most major streets in Toronto are ugly lol.
Pretty much. And it's not going to get any better. I wonder how future generations will even be able to afford housing.
No not the ugliest. You need to go one major street east & take a walk down Sherbourne Street..........if you dare.
That was the best walk 80 years ago !
Most major streets in Toronto are ugly lol.
No uber driver like to delivery to sherbourne everytime their got that street their cringe !! 😮
Why so consumed with public transportation. You do however do a great job of telling people how to get around using it😊
