A short Dundas Streetcar East to McCaul drops you right at Toronto's flagship Art Museum, designed by Frank Gehry (local boy architect) with an extensive collection of Canadian and International Art and some pretty amazing model ships in the basement... Make sure you walk the back stairs for a view of downtown, and enjoy a coffee in the Galeria Italia on the Dundas street side. Great gift shop too, of course
