in downtown toronto, there is a street called church street. that is because there are three big churches within three blocks of the street - St. Michael's Cathedral, a catholic church, in the northwest side, the Metropolitan United Church right next to its south side, and a bit further down is the Cathedral Church of St. James, which i think is anglican. st. james is surrounded by a large park where the shakespeare in the park event was staged and there is also a newer bandstand for public concerts and other events.
