Linger signs adorn the fence surrounding Toronto’s Bloordale Beach—a landlocked oasis that exists for the sake of repurposing otherwise wasted land, for creating shortcuts, and for the sake of humour, too.
Caption:
Bloordale Beach was officially inaugurated on May 25, 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Originally, the beach was surrounded by words of warning, conveying messages that were a deterrent for some, so it was a relief when Linger signs popped up in their place. As a result of the more positive messages and sentiments, many more visitors have flocked to the beach to enjoy the peaceful ambiance and dip a toe into Bloordale Lagoon, which always appears after a heavy rainfall.
