The Distillery District is one of my favorite places to visit. It is an area located in downtown Toronto, with art galleries, shops, and restaurants. I admired the brick-lined streets and the historical Victorian industrial buildings. I adored every detail preserved in the area such as, the red brick wall, rusty bolts and doors, and the old wooden barrels. There are some art galleries and studios in the District. Unfortunately a lot of them were closed during my visit. There are also some boutiques where independent fashion designers sell their clothes. The clothes were nice and a little pricey, but they are unique and stylish that you cannot find in common shopping malls.
This area sets a good example to other cities. Instead of torn down beautiful historical buildings, we should renovate them and turn them into something beautiful and useful. This is a truly sustainable design and make good use of old things in a new way.
