User:Geo Swan/Freeland Street, Toronto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Freeland Street is a short street in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1] In 1999 it was the site of sculptures intended to educate drivers of the dangers of drinking and driving.[2] All of the sculptures were constructed from automobile wrecks from accidents caused by drunk drivers.

The East Bayfront LRT will emerge from an underground tunnel at Freeland.
