⚓ Throwback Thursday — Toronto Harbour in the 1950s 🇨🇦

A very different Toronto waterfront! 🌊

This incredible view from the 1950s shows Toronto Harbour long before the skyline and waterfront we know today took shape. The ships, docks and industrial harbour tell the story of a waterfront that has been constantly changing for generations.

More than 70 years later, we’re still lucky enough to get out on these same waters — although the view from the boat has changed quite a bit! ⛵🏙️

Who remembers Toronto Harbour looking anything like this?
