"While you are at the waterfront, head over to the HMCS Haida. This floating museum highlights Canada’s wartime naval history. The HMCS Haida was launched in August 1942 and served in World War II, the Korean Conflict, and the Cold War."
"Taking your kids to the historic home of one of Toronto's first architects may seem laughable. Have we met your children?. Gazing at watercolours is hardly a hobby of theirs."
"GENERAL VIBE: Urban, Big city, DowntownBEST SEASONS TO SHOOT IN: Spring, Summer, Fall, ChristmasHIGHLIGHT FEATURES: Water fountain, Tall trees, Skyscrapers, City streetsTHOUGHTS: The centre of the city, Gore Park is a really unique-to-Hamilton place if you want to combine urban-vibes with a city park. The fountain in this spot is gorgeous and honestly one of a kind. Exploring the park and some of the nearby areas (like the roof of Jackson Square, for example) will give you tons to work with in an area that most people drive by but never explore on foot."
"It doesn't get much more iconic than Hamilton's Gore Park fountain. This centrepiece of downtown's Gore Park looks majestic from any angle and draws photographers day and night, year-round."
"610 York Boulevard Dundurn Park is a historical park and the former home of Sir Allan MacNab. The property consists of Dundurn Castle, the Hamilton Military Museum, the Coach House Restaurant, and the Cockpit Theatre. The park overlooks Hamilton Harbour and is adjacent to Harvey Park and Dundurn Parkette."
"Centre3 for Print and Media Arts is a not-for-profit, charitable artist-run centre that connects, educates and collaborates with people on local, national and international levels. Centre3 is a place for artists to not only create and produce art, but also to exhibit their work. The space supports both traditional and experimental print media and art practices; whether you want to stick with what you know or attempt something that’s never been done before, you have Centre3’s support."
"Located in the historic Victoria Hall in Gore Park, the primo location is a perfect match for Redchurch’s gorgeously renovated cafe space and excellent coffee. High ceilings and ample seating make this an excellent spot for nomadic professionals to plunk down with a latte and laptop. The rear of the cafe also plays host to The Assembly Gallery, allowing coffee drinkers to take in the ever-changing local art on display while they sip."
"Located at 68 King Street East, just off of Gore Park, Redchurch operates as a café, retail shop, event space and art gallery. Redchurch’s gallery was designed for artists and community minded groups to come share their work directly with their audience. The gallery showcases work from leading artists to new emerging talent, exhibiting pieces from both local and international creatives."
"Only in Hamilton would you find a unique coffee spot like Redchurch. Not only do they sell yummy coffee (along with smoothies and baked goods); this cafe also happens to double as a gallery - yes, a gallery - which hosts various exhibitions from a range of artists."
"James North’s Green Bar is one of Hamilton’s longest standing plant-based eateries, pumping out vegan awesomeness even before it was as trendy as it is today. Their popularity in Hamilton is obvious, given that they’ve also just opened a sister location on Locke Street that even has differing menu options from its James North counterpart to keep things lively. Big bountiful bowls of nutritious goodness take notes from Indian, Mexican, and Mediterranean cuisines, and hefty made-to-order smoothies are always there for your midday healthy boost of energy."
"Vegan, wholesome and fresh is the ethos behind this quick service downtown cafe. Beverages include smoothies and kombucha while the Green Bar Burger with a walnut and sundried tomato patty and Broccoli Mac N’ Chz are just two of the dishes you’ll find. Must-try: Vegan tacos are made with an organic corn tortilla, refried beans, pickled jalepeño, avocado, and pico de gallo, served with brown rice."
