Post your pictures of Waterloo Region!
It also used to terminate at Ottawa. When it was extended to what is now the Williamsburg centre, the existing Westmount was connected to it and renamed!

A summer panoramic shot from Victoria Park. Even with the warmer weather this week, I do think these scenes won't be repeated until next year.

Some more (phone camera) shots from Victoria Park -- a graceful subject on my walks -- that I should have posted a long time ago.

It's a shame so many people avoid the park, because it's a real gem.

Why do people avoid it? It's almost always busy when I'm by

It has a reputation amongst some people as a haven for drugs and homelessness. Those people really don't venture downtown at all, and it's too bad for them.

Another issue is that nickels aren't worth a dime anymore...

Sadly, I can’t take credit. Something like this is normally credited to Yogi Berra, although apparently it goes back decades before he said it:
