We have a lot to be thankful for in the St. Lawrence neighbourhood - from beautifully preserved historic buildings, to green parks and one of the best markets in the world. These community benefits do not happen by chance - they come about when residents care and take action to make their community a livable and enjoyable place for everyone.
One of those residents was Michael Comstock whose contributions to our neighbourhood were so significant the new Pavilion in St. James Park has been named in honour of him.
