Ossington Ave

without comments

Ossignton is a cool street in Toronto that has been taken over by the west moving gentrification that is moving through Toronto. What was once questionable karokee bars is now one of the trendiest neighbourhoods in Toronto. \

I worked with two reporters and we did a story on the night life of the street, between Queen and Dundas.

Cabo Verde is the centre of immigrants from the Cape Verde islands. Violante wore a belt buckle picturing Che Guevara because his home country went through a violent period and he can relate to Guevara.
