The
Beaches is an upper-middle class neighbourhood
and popular tourist destination located
in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The trendy
shops of Queen Street East lie at
the heart of The Beaches community,
with the boardwalk by the lake and
several large parks being just a few
steps south. The neighbourhood is
a mixture of single and semi-detached
homes, low-rise apartment buildings,
and some mansions. The beach itself
is a single uninterrupted stretch
of sandy shoreline bounded by the
R.C. Harris Filtration Plant (locally
known as the water works) to the east
and Woodbine park (a small peninsula
in Lake Ontario) to the west.
