Front Campus

Any image of the University of Toronto you’ve seen has probably featured Front Campus, encircled by King’s College Circle, it’s the main lawn of the campus and is utilized in a variety of ways from a picturesque stroll towards convocation hall on your convocation day to an arena where the Incredible Hulk fights off the army in the 2008 flick another «Toronto made to look like New York» film. It’s also a field of choice for most field sports when it’s nice out, a quiet study spot in the summer and the most slippery/​, muddy short cut used by students when walking to and from class/​the library.
It also provides one of the best views of the CN tower and I’m not just saying that because I went to UofT, the frequent tour buses that stop here for tourists to snap pictures is evidence that it is not a «secret» spot. But with new buildings popping up over the last few years, that view is becoming increasingly congested.
Note however that during most of the spring time, Front Campus is fenced off by the university so that the grass is nice and even come June’s convocation period.
