The Heart Labyrinth I re-painted during the August 2022 Pedestrian Sunday in Kensington Market . . .
The yellow remains visible,
The red, not so much.
I’ll aim to repaint it again next PSK.
After OpenStreetsTO on Sunday afternoon,
I meandered my way to Grange Park to walk my Blue Labyrinth,
It’s still there,
Still painted on the surface in the middle of Grange Park.
Below the Blue Labyrinth there is enough space for another Labyrinth.
In recent weeks,
I have been randomly chalking a walkable Heart Labyrinth in this space.
Apparently, it’s still there.
This is the Heart at the Start of the Heart Labyrinth.
The curve on the left suggests a feeling like a ray from a rainbow landing on the Heart.
I'm frustrated that the city has money to remove a fun, kid-appreciated labyrinth in Grange park, but not to do important maintenance. #TOpoli pic.twitter.com/Bm45YgDtNy

Toronto has lost its Heart…Labyrinth, in Grange Park…
Yet grateful that thousands of Torontonians + Tourists were able to enjoy and walk my Grange Park “❤️” Heart Labyrinth before this again happened today….
Toronto doesn’t have the money to get water fountains going in a timely way but will send workers again and again to erase the labyrinth people paint in Grange Pk pic.twitter.com/Bov94U8d4Y

They could just give people water and toilets in the first place and save money and effort, but they'd rather be dicks about it

For heaven’s sake, @cityoftoronto , where in the bylaws does it say we can’t have nice things and our tax dollars will pay to make sure of it? https://t.co/v9SP6tBfC0

Indeed, The City of Toronto removes park infrastructure, Labyrinths, at some cost to the taxpayer.
Whereas The City of Labyrinths Project installs park infrastructure, Labyrinths, at zero cost to the taxpayer.
Haven’t seen my Grange Park “❤️” Heart Labyrinth captured from this perspective before.
Both the black and white and the colour photograph version tell their own story.
Moreso the black and white…
BUT(!)
This instagrammer tagged the City of Toronto’s official instagram account with these photographs, and that might be just enough of a nudge for someone official-ish to go ahead and remove my Grange Park “❤️” Heart Labyrinth.
Ergo,
Walk it while you can!
Was wondering whether you could spot my “❤️” Heart Labyrinth in the middle of Grange Park from the top floor of The Art Gallery of Ontario.
Now we know !
