Rod in Toronto Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I heard about this place last week and decided to check it out today. It´s a fairly recent park, inaugurated last year, as per this article: http://urbantoronto.ca/news/2016/09/lee-lifeson-art-park-opens-north-york Not much to see really, just a small amphitheater, a few sculptures and a mural with Geddy and Alex. Stella and I spent the afternoon there, and she recognized both from the videos I´ve shown her: "is this the Rush?". We enjoyed it, because it´s a part of the city we hadn´t explored yet. A must see for any Rush fan. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_161023978_zpsdjghxqgs.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_161121617_HDR_zps5bbcbmit.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_161219319_zpstnv9ppjb.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_161818679_HDR_zps26bz4hil.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_161821342_HDR_zpsmcidgh9e.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_162436051_zps8kkxzo2x.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_165300905_HDR_zpsvjbdfp0o.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k210/RodrigoAltaf/IMG_20170619_165321076_HDR_zpsqne8yxrf.jpg 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Thanks for the photos! Stella is getting so big--I love her asking , "Is this the Rush?" The park looks like a great performance space that the neighborhood is lucky to have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 She´s REALLY big now, and carrying her on my shoulders is a huge effort these days. Her adaptation is going well, she was a bit scared of going to class everyday and not understanding a single word, but she´s learning some keywords that are helping her. I take her to school every day, and she repeats the name of every street car stop. So cute! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Is the graffiti still all over the place? I saw that some punks had defaced the place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Is the graffiti still all over the place? I saw that some punks had defaced the place. No, it was all clean. The mural with Geddy and Al's portrait was intact. I didn't see any signs of vandalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
