We took a special trip to Toronto, having heard they have a serious graf scene. It is serious indeed. We photographed graffiti alley and along through some of the alleys along Queen Street. We hit Kensington Market area and down by the distillery. We only got to a fraction what was there. Graffiti is a part of Toronto's urban landscape. Unlike in cities like Chicago where a lot of the graf is in designated areas outside the downtown area, Toronto's graffiti is all up and down its alleyways. Imagine taking the graffiti in an area like Crawford Steel in Chicago and putting it all up and down the alleys of Bucktown? So as much as the graffiti there is a part of the urban landscape, it is out of view, in some sense, designated to alleys. I just have to add, Toronto has very little crime. Big ups. We got to see some legendary writers, such as @ansermysteriousdate, and @birdo, while there. They go hard in the paint. Writers of Toronto, we salute you.
