Steamwhistle Brewery Toronto

Picture of Steamwhistle Brewery Toronto

Kind of funky home of Steamwhistle Brewery near Toronto's Rogers Center. This shot taken looking south towards condos on Lake Ontario. Steamwhistle is a micro brewery making a pretty good Pilsner. See the rating here at RateBeer.com. The building used to be a locomotive repair shop for Canadian Pacific Railways. It was built a few years ago in 1929. Location is interesting. Basically right down by the Rogers Center, just up from the Gardiner Expressway. Lousy grass cutting job out front!

Canadian Culture


Canadian culture - hockey, Tim Horton's, Inukshuks (sp?). A whole inukshuk mob scene here on the waterfront. A group of them just threw a cylist into the lake.

Picture - Humber Bay Bridge

Cool pedestrian bridge on Toronto's western waterfront. Supposedly, this is a picture of the same bridge!
