Toronto: The Five Themes Tech Project

I also knew that the CN tower is a famous landmark not only for torontains but also for canadians. Now, I know a lot about Toronto because of this project. Studying the five themes of geography really helped me to understand a place not only Toronto but other places as well. I learned exact locations, places that are near the actual location, movements, regions, and more. The five themes of geography also helped me to understand not only the place itself, but geographic part of it. For an example, from my project I learned that some people have the perception of Toronto as a hated city. One person from Canada

It is this city of Toronto that opened my eyes, my mind, and where my world truly began.…

YD Square was previously called Wilton street. The place has been historically known as the Centre of a Community as well.

Because Yonge-Dundas Square, outdoor piazza, promotes plenty of free events and entertainment to bring people together in the heart of downtown Toronto, the community should develop strategic plans for public safety and seasonality.…
