D'you know, I've lived in this burgh for 38+ years now and never been 
inside Fort York? It's right at the foot of Bathurst Street, tucked in 
next to the Gardiner Expressway. I guess I could do a 
compare-and-contrast to what I remember of the Castillo de San Marcos in 
St. Augustine, which I saw as a kid in about 1957.

MiniLoiscon with historical bits! Yupyupyup.
