Absolutely love it! I would move tomorrow...like the village feel and it feels urban too. Thanks for the discovery

What a handsome city! Your threads make me realize that I haven't seen an inch of Ontario.

Cambridgite May 11, 2007 9:37 PM

Nice town! I should come and pay it a visit someday. Shouldn't be too hard as I live about 30 minutes away.

boden May 12, 2007 1:33 PM

This one makes me think "Extra, extra, Ripper strikes in Whitechapel"

What a beautiful place! I mean really really beautiful! :tup:

It's aways such a treat to see Dundas - so many elegant Georgian and Victorian beauties and you did such a splendid job of photographing them.

well done!

SteelTown May 13, 2007 4:39 PM

I would definitely say Dundas is Canada’s prettiest suburb. Full of history, architect, culture, and beautiful natural surrounding.

Wonderful job flar! as always.

Thanks! Dundas certainly is beautiful, that's why I don't mind living in the suburbs. It's the choice of many artists and well-to-do retirees as well. There are some McMansions here, but most new development is medium density and mixed use. Retail is entirely focussed Downtown and at University Plaza, there is an almost total lack of big box stores here.

Nice pics.. I always enjoy Dundas.

Flar where is that last pic taken from with the Church Town Hall and the buildings. It looks like your facing south West. I know its not from Dundas Peak.


Anyway good work.

Boris May 14, 2007 8:24 PM

Just fabulous. Beautiful pics of beautiful residential areas. Thx a lot.

Now I need to buy a house there.

That shot was taken from the bridge-like structure about halfway up the mountain on Sydenham Rd.

Beautiful houses

Thanks all!

I lived just up the mountain in Flamborough (Greensville) when I was a kid, so these pics bring back lots of memories. Carnegie Gallery, Picone's, Webster's Falls, the Horn of Plenty...wow. Thanks for the nostalgia trip :tup:

Wow...super charming!

It looks so English.
