RE: Hangin in Queen West alleyways. Don't worry, it's safe here in Toronto.
Where abouts in Toronto is this? I run around downtown all the time and can't seem to place them.

For the lost, Queen West and all the good stuff:
Hint, use Yelp on iPhone if lost.
The laneway just south of Queen Street West are all painted up. This stretch is between Portland and Spadina, east of Bathurst St. There is always tourists taking pictures everywhere while shopping on Queen Street West.
If this bit isn't enough, There is also a great laneway hidden on the stretch east from Trinity Bellwoods Park to Bathurst.
I'll repost this and add pictures on my blog, with more detail for you, and maybe all the many tourists of the future.
Historical highlight: Queen Street was the original first street that Toronto was laid out with. The cross streets are all the same distance apart, measured in "chains". They go up some say forever to form the rational Roman street grid of Toronto.
