townscape-- shaftesbury gate



one of the gates deviding toronto into neighbourhoods. along yonge street near shaftesbury, this one is part of the old beltway commuter railway. it marks a demarcation point between the neighbourhoods of saint claire to the north and rosedale to the south.

without the bridge the dip in the road would provide some of the quality of a gate but not to the degree the combination of the two create.
