Wow, this looks really beautiful! Even if they closed off the main street to cars in the summer and then let it be open for them in the other months it could make a huge difference. We have towns that do that here where I live. I haven't been to Canada in forever. I feel like I need to make the trip back there sometime soon. It's so close after all!
Yeah it's not very common for towns and cities to block off streets unless it's a few days for a festival or something, but it would be a smart idea. It's quite common in Europe and it really makes for a nice atmosphere 👌
The town I grew up in does it every summer. Just a couple blocks so that people can wander around. They usually do live music on the weekends and food trucks and stuff like that.
That's awesome. I wish that more towns would do that up here. I'm not aware of any that do it for a prolonged period of time - just a day or maybe a week for an event or festival
