| - If you're a fan of the performing arts, this is certainly a spot worth checking out, I've recently been able to explore two of the venues on the Harbourfront grounds to watch my girlfriend perform in dance shows within the Studio theatre inside the main building as well as in the Bill Boyle Artport.
It's a little tricky getting to the HFC by car currently with the construction along the Queens Quay, but if you are driving a pro-tip would be to go along Lakeshore, turn onto Lower Simcoe and proceed straight, there is a ton of underground parking right underneath the grounds of HFC, and it's all very new looking.
What's interesting about the 10 acres of land, is that it is home to 30 different performance, shops and eateries both indoors and outdoors, all set along the waterfront - most notably would be the Westjet stage, the Amersterdam Brew House (their patio is incredible) and the Watermark Irish pub (avoid the chicken wings).
The main building of the HFC also has a Sobeys as well as a collection of small Canadiana type shops and other retailers, not for me but definitely worth window shopping. Not to mention there are several companies who've made the upper floors of the main building their Toronto offices.
I'm looking forward to making this a destination spot once the Queens Quay is completed, but until then there is enough to keep me busy and entertained!
