Timmy Drift Garage Door Mural
This garage door by Timmy Drift unfortunately is no longer. There was a big snowstorm????️back in December of 2016 and that structure just couldn’t handle the weight of the wet snow. It looks like the owners tried to repair it. But they ended up just replacing the entire building. There was artwork all around this garage. Hopefully, the new building will get some artwork on it.

Yellow Team Garage Door Mural
This just says “Yellow Team” on the garage door and the year 2014. Some of the garage doors I see look like they might have been done by the homeowners themselves, as opposed to hiring a professional artist. Again, its a preventive measure to stop the graffiti tags.

Toy Boy Graffiti
Finally, a graffiti tagged garage door. That is what most of them look like before the artwork. Apparently, Toy is a condescending term for an amateur graffiti writer.

Hi Bret;
Could you please tell me where the Casa Nostra garage art is? I’m working on a Blurb book on Toronto laneways and I haven’t seen that one…Thanks!
Richard
Its right behind the Alto condo at 1544 Dundas St W … at the corner of Sheridan. There’s a few other murals at that location.
Sounds like an interesting book !
Hope that helped!
Bret
