Southeast Rosedale walk 2014

Saturday, July 26 – 1:30 PM

Much of southeast Rosedale was once part of a neighbourhood laid out by Edgar Jarvis in the 1870s. Learn about the homes and notable sites in Edgar's Rosedale.

This walk covers the pocket of Rosedale with homes atop the Don Valley bluff. We'll get as far north as the Glen Road (automobile) bridge and end at the Glen Road footbridge. Second year for this tour.

START POINT:          Castle Frank Subway Station, Bloor St E between Parliament St and Bayview Ave.  Meet on lawn on the north side of station. No reservations required. Just show up at the start point.

FINISH POINT:          Glen Rd footbridge (Near E entrance of Sherbourne Station)

LENGTH:                    Approx. 1 ½ hours
FOCUS:                      Architectural, historical
DIFFICULTY:              Average walk on sidewalks, some small slopes

It's pay what you can with a suggestion of $5/walk.
