Toronto’s Distillery District – The Best-Preserved Collection of Heritage Architecture
September 06, 2013Toronto’s restored Distiller District has undergone
some exciting changes in recent years. Once home to the largest distillery in
the British Empire, this pedestrian-only village in Toronto now features the
region’s best-preserved collection of Victorian Industrial Architecture.
Devoted to promoting arts and culture, the Distillery
District provides a charming backdrop for the local one of a kind restaurants,
design stores and art galleries; many of which feature original high ceilings
and exposed finishes. To ensure the area keeps its unique charm, chain stores
and franchises are forbidden in the area. Now isn’t that a refreshing concept!
So the next time you’re visiting Toronto and want to
get away from the usual city attractions, take a stroll through the Distillery
District and explore a fascinating new area of Toronto.
