Virtual Tours: Upper Village Neighbourhood

We are excited to share that we now feature a virtual tour conducted throughout the Upper Village neighbourhood. Whether it be your laptop or phone, you now have the opportunity to learn about the unique history of the area while gaining a better understanding of each of its unique and storied businesses. You will also get the chance to discover nearby parks, parkettes, murals, and places to sit back and relax. We can’t wait for you to discover our vibrant, thriving, and safe community.

Join Susan Poizner & Harley Karulis and explore Toronto’s Upper Village like never before! This engaging tour highlights unique shops, delicious restaurants, and the neighborhood’s powerful history. Discover how Upper Village transformed a neglected park into a flourishing community orchard and stood strong against the Spadina Expressway project in the 1970s. See why this vibrant community is a must-visit destination for culture, history, and charm.

Harley is a tour guide for Toronto History Walks, Nancy Weisbrod is one of the founders of The Village Shul, and Susan is the founder of Ben Nobleman Park Community Orchard Group – follow the link if you would like to potentially volunteer.
