🛣 Streets & squares
Roncesvalles Avenue
🇨🇦 Canada
street in Toronto
“Most of the street scenes were shot at the intersection of Dundas Street West and Roncesvalles Avenue.” Wikipedia
Places whose own article says it was shot there
1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.
