The Underground PATH
The PATH is an underground network that connects most major buildings in the financial district in Downtown Toronto. It is an excellent way to get around on days where it is too hot or if it is raining. The closest PATH entrance to our unit is via the CBC entrance on John St. You can go on pathmap.ca to map out your route! We recommend doing this if you are not familiar with the PATH system … we speak from experience when we say it’s possible to get lost in the PATH
