Lambton Golf and Country Club
On the banks of the Humber River, this is one of Toronto’s most serene courses. 100 Scarlett Rd., 416-767-2175.
Jane Dundas Library
This tiny branch is also one of the most modern—the place was renovated in 2006. The large children’s section in the basement is a prime attraction. 620 Jane St., 416-394-1014
