Oh, my beloved plaza! The plaza never to forget

When I moved to Toronto over 30 years ago I was so very happy to discover that the little plaza on my street corner provided so much of every last minute commodity and service that I needed.

There was everything, from the corner grocery to the pharmacy.  The bakery and deli to the specialty food supermarket.  The laundry and dry cleaner to the doctor and dentist, the hairdressing salon and there was more.

Owners and employees were always so friendly, welcoming and always ready to help those of us who required assistance.  I loved them all and they welcomed me!  They were within walking distance of my condo and this was the absolute paradise for me; but now no more for me and so many others!

Thanks to greedy developers who do not care about the welfare of others, only their own bulging pockets, this little plaza is all but closed now.  Most of the businesses are all but gone!  It does not matter that one of our important neighbourhood centerpieces has been destroyed!  The hell with the welfare of seniors and those with disabilities.

I, along with others, have nowhere to go now.  No plaza close by for us to shop at.  Now we have to depend on our sighted friends and family to drive us elsewhere. I'll never forget you my beloved little plaza!  3079 Pharmacy Avenue!
