DISTILLERY DISTRICT Dept: DISTILLERY DISTRICT, according to Montreal Gazette. KENSINGTON MARKET TORONTO - If you're visiting Toronto, you can't help but notice construction cranes, new condos and other signs of gentrification, like restaurants and bars popping up in new hipster 'hoods. But despite the upscale crawl, many of the city's best attractions are tried and true mainstays that can be experienced for free. Formerly The Gooderham and Worts Distillery, the quaint East End area now known as the Distillery District has been turned into an enclave of art galleries, restaurants and boutiques offering one-of-a-kind fare such as hand-crafted jewelry housed in restored heritage Victorian buildings. Drop in at a gallery, stroll along the cobblestone streets in the warmer months to catch a free concert or check out the Christmas market when the frost sets in. The distillery may no longer be churning out spirits, but the charm of the neighbourhood lifts the spirit of this otherwise industrial stretch of the city.
