I've always had a love affair with the Brick works, and in fact was able to make a short documentary on the place (for school - I'm a Ryerson Radio and Television Arts student) last year at around this time.

The Brick Works used to be a hidden gem where I could hike off to on sunny afternoon and kick around for awhile and barely see anyone else there. The past few summers however, it's been getting busier and busier. Now with the farmers organic market, yoga, etc and other things going off - it's not quite the quiet weekend retreat it used to be for me.

Time to find another hidden gem.]]>

Hannah - I hope that that is the 'end game', but I have seen places with those pretenses end up folding and selling-off to 3rd party companies (again, not their fault, but unfortunately, good intentions meet monetary barriers); they are having a charity fund raiser soon, and I hope that people are generous! I know how the folks in the neighbourhood care for their barns. 

The group has already gone against the Ontario Historical Boards' original agreement, but this was due to 'neglect' of the property beforehand (they simply could not keep portions that they initially intended - like the east wing).

Sean: I did not say that at all; as was mentioned earlier, the space is open for public viewing at certain times, as well as others, if you co-ordinate with the current owners (who can be very nice and insightful). If it is the legality of entrance that is an issue, then simply shoot someone at Evergreen an e-mail - they are more than generous.

What they're doing with the Wychwood Barns is actually really cool. They're not turning into lofts, but artist studios/residences, gallery space, a greenhouse, etc.

The Brick Works was part of Doors Open last May, so occasionally there are chances to get into the main building without having to play any cat-and-mouse games.  It's definitely worth a visit.]]>

Thanks for posting these wonderful pictures and text.

I hope these lands will be renovated to something fitting of its site and its heritage. ie not like the distillery district.]]>

The other adam: Those Wychwood shots are from 5 years ago; they gutted it since, and left only the main supports (being turned into lofts now); I used to live in the area and sat on the board to see where it 'went'...alas, it is essentially gone now.

It really is a photographer's paradise right now; anyone who can should get down there and take advantage while they can.

Seems to me the site's already been tarted up a whole lot since I first discovered it on a bike ride up that Bayview bike path in the late 1980s, when it really was totally abandoned. 

I hope it ends up like Wychwood.  Toronto already has enough distillery districts, but it's rapidly running out of the secret quiet places that used to define it for me.]]>
