Briarly - Gone but not Forgotten (2007)

Pay a visit to a house that no longer exists — Briarly, an 1830s Regency-style cottage once graced with briar rose gardens, lives on through a gorgeous commemorative mural on Dundas West. Named for its blooms and redesigned multiple times over its long life, the home now exists only in paint and memory, making this an unexpectedly moving stop on an evening stroll. It's the kind of hidden gem that reminds you how much history is quietly layered beneath Toronto's streets. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
