.
Kensington Market.  I had a client who lived in that community.  As well, a soft-rock band I was friends with was called Kensington Market, named after that Toronto area.

.
The Casa Loma, Toronto's only real castle, open for tours

.
The Flatiron Building - always fascinated me.

.
Osgoode Hall, home of the Province's Supreme Court and the law school I attended.  It was next to the City Hall on one side and across University Avenue from the American Consulate .

.
Queen's Park, the seat of the Ontario provincial government

.
The Royal Alexandra Theatre - I spent many evenings there - it was a 3 minute walk from my downtown office.  I watched through the window of my office a Sikorsky helicopter plant the main antenna on top of the CN Tower.  

You really need to see the lush interior

.
University of Toronto, one of Canada's 3 top universities.  The other two are McGill University in Montreal and University of British Columbia in the Vancouver area.
