Just east of Old Weston Road, between St. Clair and Davenport, is Wadsworth Park. This park dates from 1934 when the city purchased the land from the Canadian National Railway.
below: The sign in Wadsworth Park gives a brief history of the park in five languages. It also provides a map of the 19 species of tree that grow here, species include London Plane, Tulip, Linden, Freeman Maple, Norway Maple, Bur Oak, Kentucky Coffee Tree, and many others.

More murals (and other things) in the area can be seen at the next blog post, South of Davenport.

Happy New Year to you too! More and more alleys are being painted in interesting ways! I am sure that there are still lots that I haven’t found yet – or others that have evolved into something new. It’s always fun to walk isn’t it? Sooo…. Keep walking and blogging!
