What is Stroll : Psychogeographic Walking Tours of Toronto about?

**Winner: 2011 Toronto Heritage Award of Merit** What is the Toronto look’? Glass skyscrapers rise beside Victorian homes, and Brutalist apartment buildings often mark the edge of leafy ravines, creating a city of contrasts whose architectural look can only be defined by telling the story of how it came together and how it works, today, as an imperfect machine. Shawn Micallef has been examining Toronto’s streetscapes for a decade. His psychogeographic reportages, some of which have been featured in __EYE WEEKLY__ and __Spacing__ magazine, situate Toronto's buildings and streets in living, breathing detail, and tell us about the people who use them; the ways, intended or otherwise, that they are being used; and how they are evolving. __Stroll__ celebrates Toronto's details some subtle, others grand at the speed of walking and, in so doing, helps us to better get to know its many neighbourhoods, taking us from well-known spots like the CN Tower and Pearson Airport to the overlooked corners of Scarborough and all the way to the end of the Leslie Street Spit in Lake Ontario. __Stroll__ features thirty-two walks, a __flâneur__ manifesto, a foreword by architecture critic John Bentl
