Hey All,

Thought it would be fun to make a post here with a photo I took this past weekend and see if anyone can guess the location (Toronto, obviously).

I'm sure someone will get it early on, but what the heck :-)

It's the first time I ever noticed it. It's a series of elevated ramps that form sort of a wave pattern. It's difficult for me to explain it to be honest. It's on harbourfront right in front of Paws and Williams Coffee Pub

Easiest way to describe it: boardwalk with (wavy) elevation changes.

bingo.

Look for the people who are sliding down it on their arses.

It was hard to get a shot without someone's leg in the photo.

This may be redundant but it's the Simcoe wave deck at Harbourfront. It's basically a deck but shaped like a wave. Some of the bigger wavy areas are off limits but you'll still see kids playing around.

edit. oops.. too slow.

turn it into a forum game. An abstract shot of something in TO and a full shot of location. Correct guess gets to post the next shot for ppl to guess.
