Toronto Islands

from Muddy York: A Toronto History Podcast · host Adam Waiser and Grayson Miller

For 150 years, the Toronto Islands have been everybody's favourite place to get away from it all. But they're not just a vacation spot. They were the site of Babe Ruth's first professional home run. They are the home of Toronto's oldest ghost story. In fact, the weirdest fact about Toronto Island is that until 1852, it wasn't even an island. This week on Muddy York, learn more about the best urban park in Canada. Happy Holidays! We'll see you in the new year.
