Chester Hill Lookout

Chester Hill Rd, Toronto, ON M4K 1V4

Semicircular concrete overlook painted with a giant astrology wheel, facing the Don Valley skyline.

This guide to Chester Hill Lookout in Toronto starts with a mundane accident of infrastructure: 1950s crews carving out the Don Valley Parkway sliced a residential road short, leaving a leftover concrete stub with nowhere to go. It follows how that forgotten cul-de-sac off Broadview Avenue sat unused for decades until a chalk artist found it, going by the handle whatsvictorupto. For two decades he has drawn enormous geometric pavement art across six countries before kneeling down on this slab.
