The map below shows the locations of the G.H. Hogle Funeral Home,
St. Leo's Catholic Church, and Wesley Mimico United Church. It also
indicates our house at 23 Station Road. The written directions below
are for how to get to our house, but you should be able to use this
information and the map below to get to the other facilities that are
being used.
(1) Driving from the East of Toronto
These directions can be used for people from
Peterborough or the east end of Toronto.
Click here for a map from the east of Toronto.
o Exit the Gardiner at Lakeshore West (note that there are several
Lakeshore exits... this exit is the one just after the South Kingsway
Exit).
o Follow the off-ramp down under the Gardiner, and turn right onto
onto Lakeshore Boulevard West (Westbound).
o Follow Lakeshore to Mimico Ave (the traffic light before this one
is Superior Ave), and turn right.
o Follow Mimico to Station Road and turn right (this will be
the 2nd street on your right).
o Follow Station Rd to house #23 (we're the 4th place on the right).
[Going back, you will not be able to retrace your route
because Mimico is a one way street. Instead, turn right
out of our driveway, turn right at Stanley, turn right
at Superior, and left onto Lakeshore West (Eastbound).]

second right), and turn right (Southbound).
o Follow Station to house #23 (we're the 9th house on the left).

because Stanley is a one way street. Instead, turn left
out of our driveway, turn right at Mimico, turn right

the Gardiner Westbound at Islington, so when you are on
Evans Avenue, you will continue past Islington to Kipling,
and from there you will see signs to the Gardiner Westbound.]
