Erased last week, back today. It’s kind of amazing how how time and money the city is willing to spend trying to kill the guerrilla labyrinth in Grange Park. I mean, it’s not as though the parks budget is flush pic.twitter.com/AXEy4OVbqB

Well when you drive in from Alliston, the last thing you want to see is an email from a staffer saying, "Sorry, GM of Keeping Grass Green & Rec Centre Waiting Lists, but somebody is colouring outside of our lines again."#TOpoli

Once a #park, #playground or walkway gets characterized as a #municipal "asset" to be "managed", the practice of administrators often becomes reduced to holding the line and maintaining the course, at which point creativity gets flushed.
Creativity can be prioritized. Or not.

This is the same thing the city dealt with when ford started up his anti graffiti thing and started sandblasting actual works of art…paid for by BIAs…so dumb…use your brain, figure out what makes a city good and what makes it bad…

@McKelvieTO what is happening?!

It’s fine, it’s whimsical, it’s educational, it’s everything you’d want in a park!

When did they originally remove the maze? That was there when I lived nearby 12 years ago

Guerrilla in the sense of unsanctioned. Staff keep having it removed and the public keeps re-painting it
— Oliver Moore (@moore_oliver) February 22, 2023
Cripes that’s stupid. The public obvious like it.

I'd like to hope that the city's irrational quest to spare no expense to ensure that no unauthorised fun is had will end along with our former mayor.
I suspect it won't. https://t.co/QbeDswxBf3

Why erase it, this is wonderful! Great activity for your mind and I’m sure kids love it! Councillor @ausmalik, how about we have it painted permanently instead of using up resources to keep removing?

“I have seen some of the little ones playing on that. Yeah, I thought it was pretty cool.”
“Everybody really, really enjoys that Labyrinth and every time it’s produced, a few days pass and The City comes and removes it.”

I just saw this on the news. Wth is wrong with the people at City Hall. There is horrendous graffiti all over the City that never gets cleaned, but they spent $14,000 in 2022 removing labyrinths. Geez!

Early Morning Labyrinth Walkers at the recently repainted Grange Park Labyrinth . . .
Before it was depainted.
Capture-wise,
The canary yellow outline of the Labyrinth Design works well in contrast to the Giant Wall of Sky Blue colouring the south wall Grange Park facing side of the Art Gallery of Ontario.
From now on,
Maybe I will no longer repaint the Grange Park Labyrinth using shades and tints of Blue.
Yellow may be the way to go.
Middle of February 2023,
Warm enough for this little one to scooter around the Christie Pits Park Labyrinth . . .
While [re]painting the Grange Park Labyrinth to remedy its absence from Grange Park over the winter,
I recognized Photojunkie Rannie Turingan as he began his & Cody’s spiralling walk towards the Heart in the Centre.
We hadn’t seen one another in person since before the Pandemic, since before I was living in Vancouver.
Rannie & Cody were officially the first Labyrinth Walkers of the renewed Grange Park Labyrinth.
I walked the Labyrinth in High Park for the first time in a long while. Felt good to let the mind relax. No one around at all. pic.twitter.com/pnRce1004j
