The Junction on YouTube

I found this video posted on YouTube that captures almost every part of the Junction neighbourhood within 3min 31secs.

LOL!!!
How cool is that?!?!
Great soundtrack too. Would have liked seeing the big old cement mills on Junction Road included.
I can't quite place the small white building at the end of the reel?

If you're referring to the white low-rise building with a lot of overgrown shrubs covering it, thats on Dundas between the Shoppers and the LCBO across from Tim Hortons (between Runnymede and Jane). It looks like an old gas station or auto-body shop.

The other, art deco type of white building, I believe is the old synagogue Kenesseth Israel which is on Maria Street north of Dundas between St. John's place and Clendenan Ave. it was built in 1911and happens to be the oldest purpose-built synagogue in Ontario.
