WHERE: King Street and York Street, and Bloor Street West, near Avenue Road.
WHEN: 6:40 and 6:55 a.m.
WHAT: Torontohenge happens two mornings and two evenings a year: it’s when the sunrise or sunset aligns with Toronto’s east and west–running streets. Today and tomorrow, it’s the sunrise that’s throwing light right down the middle of city streets; the sunset won’t line up till October 24 and 25.

    This is interesting. Perhaps we should sacrifice a white squirrel to some pagan god? Anyway, thank you to Michael C. for this

    The Druids who built Toronto were obviously much more sophisticated than we’ve realized.

    And yet … no one knows who they were or … what they were doing there.
