My Toronto Includes Angela Noseworthy
Angela Noseworthy, Web and Graphic Designer
On top of the world at the Glencedar Bridge, orginally built in 1912.
What is your most favourite place in the city? The pedestrian footbridge on Glencedar Rd, north of my apartment. It’s like walking on top of the woods 
What is it that you like about this location? This is my favourite park right now, because it feels hidden and a bit unknown. I stumbled upon it on a bike ride last year and immediately fell in love. I love the view of the trees and walking path below, the smell of grass and tree, and the sounds of the birds – I guess it appeals to all my senses
Where is the best place to eat in the city? Wow, so many to choose from… I’d have to say Albert’s Real Jamaican food is a definite fave. I’ve never had better Jamaican food anywhere else, and it’s right down the street from my apartment.
What do you like about living in Toronto? The whole urban experience, the convenience of being close to friends & culture – I really like the events at Harbourfront in the summer.
What do you hate about living in Toronto? People who ride their bikes on the sidewalk.
Where would I find you on a lazy Sunday afternoon in the city? Taking a walk or bike ride in a new part of the city, helping the in-laws with their garden, or reading the Sunday paper with my man. (Although I don’t get much “Lazy” time anymore.)
Who is your favourite Local Celebrity? I don’t really get star struck, but I’d have to say any of our local comedians & musicians are very cool people. I really dig Frank Ghery.
Car, Bike or Transit? Bike, Walk, or Transit! I love that I don’t have a car anymore and I’m not contributing to pollution as much.
Favorite personal story or commentary on the city Once I gave a lady 2 dollars in the checkout line at dominion because she didn’t have enough to pay. She was so overly happy, she said thanks about 5 times, and offered to drive me home. It amazed me how surprised she was that someone would do that. If you’re going to live in a city, I think it’s good to do little good-karma deeds once in a while, because you never know when you’ll need that 2 dollars.
My Toronto includes helping others, working hard, living life and appreciating the friends I’ve made here.
