Open for business
at 763A Woodbine Avenue
This web site now has a street presence at the corner of Woodbine
& Gerrard (next door to Daisy Mart).
Please feel free to drop by and talk about the site or to play a
game of chess.
The hours are 12 noon to 6 p.m., Tuesday to Saturday, and other
times as the whim strikes me or by appointment.
The location is actually my office and classroom, but since it has a storefront, I am taking advantage of that to sell off various items I no longer need, primarily several hundred books.
The guest book is now on line
A guest book is now on line for comments about the area or feedback about the web site.
Comment forms will also be added to other pages; the first to have one is the page concerning the condominium development on the southeast corner.
Weather in the Upper Beaches
For complete weather information for this area, see the Nikita Observatory, a personal weather station near Gerrard & Main. The image here shows the temperature from that weather station, presented by the Weather Underground.

This website needs your support
This is not a commercial web site; it exists to promote the neighbourhood around Woodbine Avenue and Gerrard Street East. The cost of maintaining it is small in dollars, but the time it takes can be considerable.
If you think this site can make a significant contribution to the area, please consider supporting it; see the support page for ways in which you can help.
