This past weekend was a big one for urban explorers, as public and private buildings across the city welcomed Torontonians into rarely seen spaces for the 2012 edition of Doors Open, the annual guided-tour festival. Our photographers were out snapping pictures for posterity. Click through the gallery, above, to see some of the best of them.
